“Break Glass in case of Emergency.” Painting by Eileen Sorg

Where there’s a will, there’s a way. For me, this image embodies that sentiment and there is no doubt that this group of hummingbirds will get to their reward one way or another. — Eileen Sorg

My sister-in-law Diana received this card from her daughter; she then emailed a photo of it to us. Diana’s photo has a bit more clarity than the image above, which I found on the web. I mention this because it means Eileen Sorg’s artwork has excellent, clear detail, better than what I am able to reproduce here. I believe the above painting is done in colored pencil, as is much of her work.

This is not an advertisement. Neither SMBAS nor myself nor anyone I know is getting any commissions from this. I like Sorg’s artwork for it’s combination of attention to detail, humor, fantasy, composition, skill, and her inclusion of real, identifiable birds. I think many others will like it as well. There’s quite a selection on her website https://twodogstudio.com/. Her work is sold as either cards or large prints.
