Roy this is a lovely and stunning piece. Love your soft blends and colors. Thanks for sharing your talent with us all. Have a great day, Blessings, Jan.
This is just gorgeous! I see many of these birds where I live in Bella Coola, B.C. They are amazing, how they drop from the sky like an arrow into the water and fly back out of the waves with a fish in their beak!
Artist Reply: Thanks Tahirih. Unfortunately this gorgeous creature is becoming a rare sight locally.
What an interesting little guy. I've heard of these but have never seen one before. Love the colors. Nice focus. I like the mix of media here. I can see enough detail in the feathers and branch to look like ink, then the soft blend of watercolor to finish it off. Beautiful. Such talent. Great study work!
