Wow talk about detail, I am a little confused about the process..it is all digital or it was painted then enhanced digitally? Either way technical apsects are exceptional, I would expect to see this in a bird book.

    Thank you very much For your encouraging review! :o)
    It is painted digitally, but in traditional style. My program [ArtRage] allows to choose canvas or art paper textures and the tools I wish to use [brushes, pencil etc.], and mix my colors. Then o paint like I would on canvas, just that I move my brushes with my fingers on a touch pad. It is a bit like finger painting, although more complicated. :o)

You have really created such an enchanting artwork digitally. I love the sublime beauty of this dove in soothing hues of blue and grey!! I found the full description of this dove provided by you so useful and relevant to truly appreciate this dove. Kudos

Lovely digital artwork of the White winged dove allowing us to see the natural beauty of the bird clearly. The detail around the eye and the eye itself is great. Nicely done overall.

Very creative and well composed art work. The shades and color appear so natural and very eye appealing. The eye of the dove has special expression and that can attract any viewer. Very nice artwork.

A beautiful dove that is very nicely shown against that rather abstract background. The eye is fantastic and the colors could not be more attractive.

This is a unique piece. I like the composition you chose. It really makes the bird's eye the main focal point. The blue highlights the determined expression these birds usually have. I like the movement you created in the background, it nicely contrasts the stillness of the bird. Well done, thanks for sharing

    I don't know if you knew Chickadee when she was here, but your work reminds me of her. She had the same lovely detail in her work as you do! SO Love your artistry! :o) Nancy

This is a truly beautiful Dove with the light blur colors around the red eye, and You have pictured it so well. I especially like the background with the great textures, and the colors also go so well together with the colors of the bird.

The smoothness of the brush strokes of the birds are so well done, and as usual you have paid such good attentions to detail. Very good use of high lights as well.

The format and framing is perfect and the Dove has got such a fine placement on the canvas. I think this is a truly lovely and well done digital painting Cleo. Sorry I don't have any 6 stars left, because this work is indeed worth a higher rating.

This is an interesting view of the
White winged dove. I have only see the dark morning dove? This one is pretty. Good close
up of the texture and facial details, especially the eye with the lovely blue that appears to trail into the beak. It is enjoyable to see. Nice background brush and digital work.
