Beautiful colors. I love the soft looking velvet appearance of the blossoms The details on the bird feathers are so sharp.
The soft pastel color back round is nice for this work and adds a soft and gentle feeling to the over all image. Lovely indeed

Comment from Judith C Miller
You have such a keen color and design sense. It really shines through in your work. This is a lovely piece, and that you thought to bring digital and fine art together in this way is really quite ingenious. Another great strength you have, and this work is no exception, is in your compositions. Very well put together and balanced.

This is lovely Shawn. I cannot tell what is digital and what is painted, but I am sure that is the purpose, lol. Very nicely composed with excellent details. Shirley .

Yes, t hanks for asking, got sick of the Canyons, headed for the Ocean, stopped for an evening near Universal, not to see the park but just for some lively activity and started up the coast south of Malibu and followed it home. Had a good time, happy to be home. Shirley

This is beautiful, and I love water color as a medium. YOu have created a great piece, and a piece I am familiar with, the bird found in the Philippines, my family is native of the Philippines, and my dad said when he was a trouble making kid he use to catch these!
Your choice of colors are great and the red really makes the entire piece radiant. he details in the bird and the leaves of the flowers and tree are great and help give depth to the piece. Thank you for the great work and thank you for sharing.

Comment from amberporteous
This is a very unique way to enhance a watercolor painting. I really like the colors you chose, the red really enhances the oriole. I like it. It would be interesting to see the original watercolor too!!

Thank you, Amber! I could post the original traditional work, but I don't think it would get many reviews, being unfinished :))
Comment from Linda
Love the soft background colours against the stronger colours in the foreground. Great details on the bird. Excellent composition, technically excellent. Magical! Thank you for sharing

Comment from Dazzleme
If I had a 6* you would have it for this! It is so eye appealing and the detail is amazing! Nicely done with the colours you have chosen here. The use of the watercolurs has put a nice apppearance to this Shawn. It presents extremely well! You are so talented!

Comment from fila4
The detail given to the oriole and its coloring is very sharp and has good contrast next to the bloom on the branch. Good color and shading on the leaves. The soft pastels used on the background are very well done. Enjoyed viewing. Inpact, color harmony and creativity of presentation are very good. Enjoyed viewing. Thanks for sharing your work.
