Hey Cleo! This is a great work of art you have presented here. The use of light and color are both spot on. All of the details in the shadows as well as the highlights both stand out well. The birds position is intriguing and catches the viewers eye. Job well done here!

Another beauty Cleo! The color choices are very realistic, as is the entire design of the scene. Not quite as much detail in the sparrow as I've seen in some of your other works, but it is still a beautiful painting.

Thank yo very much Dave,
I do not want to get to photo-realistic. I wanted to show the motion. I painted it after a scretch I made as I have seen it through the window. :o)
Comment from Envision
This is lovely Cleo. I think you made the sparrow look gorgeous. The entire painting is very realistic in spite of that not being your goal :) I don't think you can help it with your talent! The motion comes across very well. I enjoy how much the textures stand out, making the paint properties three dimensional.

excellent color choice - harmonious creation with perfect use of space
beautiful detail work, excellent shadow and light application
a very attractive work with a good visual first impact , all the best for the contest

Cleo,
A very beautiful picture of this little cock House Sparrow picking seed from your feeder. Created by your artist's eye for composition very knowledgeable digital techniques beautiful choice blending & application of your colours in bringing this scene & the Sparrow to chirruping life.

You do such a great job, Cleo, of painting wonderful natural scenes of nature. I really like the softness of your rendering that fits the subject matter well. Colors are true to life throughout. Just such a lovely piece.

Comment from Daphne Oberon
Very fluid and lifelike pose of this flyby sparrow. (Should the bird's leg on the viewer's right be momentarily be touching down on something though, since the left is resting on the feeder? ) The pose and motion in the wing is great. Feeder and leaves are very believable. The bird too is very believable. ( I wonder if the leg were in closer to the body it would be more believable. This just might be my opinion. ) Nice work!

Thank you verry much for your encouraging comments. I am not sure why, but this bird was moving the the leg along wit the wings the whole time I watched him.
Comment from Terri's Creative mind
This is a very nice painting. I had to look twice to make sure it wasn't a photo. Very nice form on the bird and feeder. It's very realistic. Thanks for sharing. I wouldn't change anything.

Comment from Montana Shooter
This is a lovely composition done with digital painting. I think you made the right choice in showing a slightly blurred wing motion as the sparrow eats from the bird feeder. Colors are great and the brush strokes and to the feel of motion. Good luck in the contest!
