I think that you captured the lovely colors of the bird excellently. The colored part of the body and the feet stand out from the white and gray plumes of the tail and the wings. The dark eye and the reflection in it are especial interesting. I am impressed by your attention to realistic detail and color. Perspective and proportions are correct. The bird is well placed within the frame. The composition is balanced.

I think this is a beautiful drawing with such realistic shape and structure of the bird, the colors and tones are well chosen and applied, it's a lovely pose you have placed the bird in , well shown face , beak and I appreciate the way you bring the bird to life with your creation of its eye! Well presented!

    not for science, more for developing a better artist eye when it comes to drawing pigeons. Especially for my fiction books where they are the main characters.

    Thank you for your continued support of my artwork, it is appreciated.

A very good looking entry into the competition posted here! Your fine, full and central composition grants us an enjoyable view of your beautiful pigeon. Like the patterns on its feathers. Well drawn and good luck!

Really enjoying looking at this. Your work with color appears well done. Appreciate the level of difficulty, & the tiny lines of contrasting color.

Comment from rick1949


It's lovely and has a wonderful feel and atmosphere to it-the bird is very well rendered-every study doesnt have to be a fully realized rendering-even with no supportive shadows or texture this bird is very well grounded-I would have loved to have seen this on a warmer toned paper-even study sketches can have value as "finished" works
