Just Imagine!

I had painted this picture 17 years ago, this was a hugh Flamingo Sanctuary locked in a marshland at the end of the Dubai Creek, these birds formed a hugh carpet covering this marshland, migrated from the cold Siberia. I visited this place last month, plenty of tall skyscarpers and roads curved into this land with only a handful of birds left. Signages and parks were put up for birdwatchers to observe this birds, but I can only imagine!

Wonderful mood and effects. Almost pointalism, but with a more mythstical effect. I love the colour pallette too.

Artist Reply: Thank you Sally for your comments and time, this santuary will be gone in another 2 years time if these people don't preserve and conserve the enviroment. there were too many buildings and highways already built in this mashland, maybe too late.

The treatment of your idea is remarkable. Beautiful composition, the alignment of the birds is a nice touch.
