EYE MISS MY BIRDY by Christine brand

John Cappello 02 Aug 2012

This is Wonderful artwork! hope You get even Many more Comments that You Deserve!

Christine, Thanks for your comments on The Lion of Judah, I knew from the start it was going to be special, and it just kept developing into a wonderful testimony, so I decided to keep it for display so everyone would know how much we owe Our God, I am so impressed with your work. So sorry to hear about Clownie, I know how this feels I am also an animal and bird lover. They become just like family. Lots of people don't understand that. Everytime I lose one it is devistating. God Bless and keep you in His loving arms. We are truely His children. Love to you, Diane Deason

This work is beautiful. If you made it while your clownie had died he was a very beautiful birdy.

Artist Reply: OOO! THANK YOU SO MUCH! YOU ARE MAKING ME CRY. YES, CLOWNIE WAS A VERY BEAUTIFUL COCKATIEL. HE USED TO LOVE TO LET YOU RUB HIS HEAD WITH YOUR NOSE, HE WOULD NIP AT YOU IF YOU DIDN'T. INSISTANT BIRD, LOVED ATTENTION AND LOVED TO MAKE NOISES LIKE A GUINEA PIG I ONCE HAD THAT HE LOVED. HE WOULD SIT ON THE CORNER OF THE GUINEA PIGS CAGE AND JUST LOOK AT HIM WITH LOVE. FUNNY THING. CLOWNIE LOVED TAKING A BATH ALSO. HE WOULD PUT UP ONE WING AND THEN THE OTHER TO BE SHOWERED WITH SPRAY. BUT THE MOST AMAZING TIME WAS THE DAY I HAD HIM IN THE SHOWER WITH ME SITTING ON MY SHOULDER, HE LOVED TO CATCH THE SPLASH. I REMEMBER THE SUN SPARKLING IN THROUGH THE WINDOW CREATING RAINBOWS IN EACH DROP OF WATER. I SAID, "CLOWNIE YOU LOVE YOUR BATH DON'T YOU!" AND HE RUBBED HIS FACE ALL OVER MINE... SUNSHINE AND LOVE SPREAD THROUGH ME LIKE MELTING BUTTER THAT DAY. I STILL REMEMBER HIS SOFT HEAD AND FEATHERS. MAKES ME WANT TO CRY. IF YOU NEVER HAD A BIRD IT IS AN EXPERIENCE LIKE NO OTHER. I CAN NOT EXPLAIN. I ALWAYS WANTED A BIRD AND WOULD LONG TO HOLD ONE IN MY HANDS, SO I BOUGHT CLOWNIE, A CREME COLORED LUTINO. I WOULD TELL CLOWNIE I WISHED I COULD B A BIRDIE WITH HIM AND FLY AWAY. BUT I AM HUMAN AND NOW MY CLOWNIE IS GONE AFTER 17 YEARS. I STILL CRY AND DON'T THINK I WILL EVER GET OVER LOSING HIM COMPLETELY. I HAD TO MOVE TO CALIFORNIA, DROVE THERE IN MY CAR AND DIDN'T THINK CLOWNIE WOULD SURVIVE THE TRIP, SO I LEFT HIM WITH A FRIEND, THINKING I MIGHT SEND FOR HIM LATER. BUT HE DIED A COUPLE OF MONTHS AFTER I LEFT. THEY THINK IT WAS FROM A BROKEN HEART. MY SISTER BURIED CLOWNIE BY HER FRONT PORCH IN THE FLOWER BED, A LITTLE WHITE ROCK WITH HIS NAME ON IT TELLS THE STORY. NOW HE IS THAT, A LITTLE WHITE ROCK IN MY HEART. THANK YOU FOR LIKING THIS AND GOD BLESS YOU FOR YOUR THOUGHTS. I HOPE THE GOD OF THE ANGELS BLESSES YOU WITH LOVE AND THE FREEDOM OFF THE SKIES. SINSEERLY CHRISTINE BRAND

This is awsome and you story about Clownie makes me want to go out and get one for myself. I have often thought of geting into birds...my aunt owns 34 birds...cockatiels, parrots all the tropicals. When you are in your house you would swear you were in the jungle!

awsome picture

Carliss Mora 31 Jul 2007

Truly beautiful, Christine! Those rememberances will always be bittersweet, but from my experiences, as time goes, on the sweet will take over.

Steven Torrisi 31 Jul 2007

They say some pets look like their owners, but also that pets pick up traits from their owners. What is sure that when one dies the survivor never forget the other, and two become one. A mood and thought for what you beautifully translated into pictures.

Mary Lou Cupp 31 Jul 2007

francis kwok peng kin 30 Jul 2007

a very dedicated and personal tribute to your wonderful birdie.

Ana Tirolese 30 Jul 2007

Lovely. Christina Iam so sorry to hear about Clownie. I can empathise with how you feel. I have two cockatiels and two lovebirds living in my home. They each have their very own distinct personality and are very loving, funny, sweet, and wonderful. I can imagine your loss. You will never find another birdie like Clownie, but you could get yourself another cockatiel and build a new relationship. It won't be the same but could be just as rewarding.

Gary Sheldon 30 Jul 2007

I feel for you. I have a parrot named buddy, and if I lost him It would kill me. god bless clownie. Gary
