Once again, Cleo, at first glance, I thought this was a photo. Then I realize it's one of your very natural digital paintings. Never ceases to amaze me. Excellent subject, beautifully rendered.

Beautiful digital painting of the white winged dove , very well shaped with good realistic structure , nice show of the smooth feathers on head and body, beautiful eye that brings the dove to life, I love the way the eye is outlined in blue.
Well placed within the frame, nice natural background , it appears to be a hollowed tree .
Well arranged and presented! Beautiful work Cleo!

Great work Cleo. This is really well done. It is hard to believe that this is digital. It looks like a real painting.

The dove looks real especially the head. Colors are true and natural.

Nice work Cleo ~ Steve

I think it looks real, because my program allows me to choose my canvas structure, my brushes and mix my colors as I would at a traditional painting, Just that I move my tools on a touch pad. :o)

This is a great digital art piece. I thought it was a photograph until I saw the white on the wing. But that doesn't matter. Good choice of background. It brings out the colors on the bird. I learned something new about birds. Thank you.

This is a sweet capture of a dove. I didn't realize it was a Digital Art Painting so I am confused as what and how you did it and what the before and after was.

Thank you for your kind review! :o)
There is no before and after.
The dove is entirely painted stroke by stroke. My program [ArtRage] allows to paint as I a would on canvas, just that I move my brushes with my fingers on a touch pad. Its like finger painting, although more complicated.

Comment from nikman
A very good looking nature shot posted here with the helpful notes. Your fine and classical composition grants us an enjoyable view of your lovely dove. Exposure and sharpness are good!
