This is a great composition.
The framing by the leaves and the old barn is fantastic.
Beautiful colors and great detail.
Just to see the birds eye sparkling gives a feeling of comfort.
Great work.

I really like how everything is basically the same tone except the bright yellow bird and a few purple flowers. Very much like a dream would be. Excellent composition!

Beautiful, lovely painted bird, soft colors and I like so much the little purple flowers you didn't forget to add to the branch which is in front of a good light too. Good water color work.

Good creative presentation. Good color harmony. Good technique. Good lighting/shadowing. Good detail. Good center of interest. Good depth of field. Great story telling ability.A very beautiful painting-I can hear the beautiful melody the bird is singing. Just the right amount of everything.

Comment from Charlena


This is so pretty, I love the old homestead, it kind of buried in the old grass, the bird singing in the foreground, the colors are soft mute and very calming, I really like the subject and mood.

Take it from one..you are 100% correct and how I would love to meet a character like this! Your setting in this composition is picture perfect and very eye catching. Love the color work and balance overall. Splashes of flower work around the bird do well to create a much needed contrast and captivate attention. I surely enjoyed:)

Comment from photobug


I love this. The colors are soft and warm making the fantasy feeling. i like the color of the bird and the cardinal shape and the shack in the distance is great. This is nice, good work.

Oh shawn,this is so very 'tweet' :)I love the nice color palette that you used and the bird is very nicely
presented and placed in this composition.I like that you left the area behind the bird white,it really enhances :his" spot in the painting.I like the soft simplicity of this one and you did a great job!!
Angelheart :)
