Very appealong piece of art. Nice composition and use of soft colouring. The combination of watercolours (and other forms of painting) and digital enhancement seems to be more and more popular. It adds another dimension and a lot more scope for that piece of art that you might otherwise 'give up ' on. Nice work.

Beautiful piece. I love the mottled texture applied. The colors are wonderful and blend together nicely. The Spanish moss, the snowy egret and the tree are all perfectly placed. Enjoyed viewing. Creativity of presentation is very good. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Shawn, a nice combination of textural techniques that work well togeather. A frosted glass background, pointelism on the tree and bold whisps in the plumage. Nice one and thanks for sharing.

Comment from Anne
You are an incredible artist. This is stunning the way you have done it. I bet it was going to be an awesome watercolor. The coloring in this and the way the colors go together is fantastic. I really like the way you put this one together. Detail is great. An excellent and beautiful work of art.

Its a lovely Digital water color paintin, I really like the soft touch and the use of soft colors on the background, I also like this tree which gives a look of hand, but i don't understand why this egret is in air? lol looks like he is floating, doesn't look like if he is sitting :) Overall lovely concept and the composition.

I never found the time to finish this traditionally, Richard, so I put it onto my PC and finished painting it digitally. Thank you so much for taking the time to review it. I really appreciate it.
Comment from suekemps2
Shawn this is beautiful.
It is so light and fragile looking with the wispy feathers, a really beautiful look.
Great color choice and mix.
The background gives full support to the Egret.
Wonderful story telling component.
Great lighting tech.
I like the legs and the way he look ready to walk off at any moment.
Thank you so much for sharing.
