Here is the quote for this work:

Emily Dickinson (1830 - 1886)

Hello all,
this is my newest work and it’s taken more time because of my work schedule than I thought it would. Funny little blue footed birds, they look like they are having a great time don’t they? I have not painted these birds before so they go into the “Things I’ve Never Done Before” section of my work. They were fun to paint and I hope that shows through.
I have been working hard on re-writing my artist statement, and artist bio. If anyone feels like giving me a review of my new statement and Bio, then you can see it HERE.
You know writing those is hard!!! It’s very important that they be done and done right for every artist. It’s just that I have been putting it off for a year…It took me three days to get the statement to sound and feel right, but I’m still not sure if it is too long still. If you have the time check it out, let me know what you think. I am sick of reading them both.
I’ve got to run, more work to do! This work will be on the website as soon as I finish building a web page for it, it’ll be in the paintings gallery, at the bottom of the page.
Hope all is well in all your worlds,
Heather

Hi Heather,
I love this pair of blue footed boobies.
once in my sailing days we sailed around galapogas islands. that's where these birds live.
they are so cute, so gentle, so unused to humans. we could walk right up to their nests (which were just a few twigs really. a kind of token nest, like x marks the spot) and they would simply whistle gently as if to say, hey watch where you put your foot. tread gently!
some of the most gentle beings i've ever come across.
love,
j
