A Painting Blooms: Chipmunk Digging Hydrangea 2.0
In this A Painting Blooms: Chipmunk Digging Hydrangea 2.0 video, you will discover that chipmunks are opportunistic excavators; if your hydrangea roots are left unprotected, your garden becomes a subterranean construction site. Bloomin Fool captures these small foremen in the criminal act of a garden renovation.
Chipmunk Digging Hydrangea 2.0: The Painting Process This video shows the Chipmunk Digging Hydrangea 2.0 painting in stages from start to finish. By watching the process, you can see how the initial sketch evolves into a completed work through layers of acrylic glazes. This method allows Bloomin Fool to capture the specific textures of the fur and the foliage of the hydrangea.
The Hydrangea Conflict: Hydrangeas often attract the Tamias striatus, or eastern chipmunk. These animals use their powerful paws to tunnel through root systems or displace soil. This behavior is most common during the daylight hours when the garden is active.
Botanical Resources: For more information about wildlife and gardening, Bloomin Fool uses the Penn State Master Gardener Program as a resource for all things gardening related.
