Sangue ed Amore: "The Tragical History of the Indian Princess Spocawntwa"
'Donna Maddalena, formerly known as Princess Spocawntwa, tenderly cradles her lover, Governor Tom, who has been pierced through with an assegai by her father, the nefarious dwarf Chief Mulggthwly, as they sing the passionate trio, "Son morto con quest'assegai!"'
(From the Act III finale to Alessandro Smith's 1897 opera "The Tragical History of the Indian Princess Spocawntwa.")

New Bird Ornaments
These ornaments are for sale at my Etsy shop, and also at the Barn Swallow Gallery in Virginia. A lovely hand-painted avian ornament to perch in your Christmas tree (and some backwards migration, depending on where you live). The ornaments are acrylic on wood, a quarter-inch-thick and 1.5-2.5 inches across. Sides and back are painted red so they stand out well from your evergreen. A perfect gift for bird lovers, art lovers, holiday lovers, and other miscellaneous lovers. If there is a favorite bird you'd particularly like that you don't see here yet, I'm delighted to fill requests via comments or email (and keep checking in, as there are more birds flocking in every day). Happy holidays!
