Thank you both. The original photograph was indeed beautiful. Your digital work is also beautiful. I like the brush strokes they give a sense of movement in the feathers and the flakes. Nice form to the bird. I like the treatment of the branches as well. Beautiful work.

This is a wonderful digital painting of the cardinal. The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good effort!

Comment from Stringbean


Beautiful digital art creations Diane! I like how the Cardinal is perched on the tree branch puffing it's feathers to with standing the cold snowy day. It is visually very strong. This is an image where you can feel the cold as well as see it, so it is emotionally strong. Good brush strokes and blending and shading of colors. Beautiful work creating the falling snow. A creative and talented art work. I love that you lighten the eye. Outstanding work and thanks for sharing. Love this!

A beautiful image that is shown in superb colors. I like the composition and think the rendering of the snow is exceptional. The detail in the plumage is very nice and cardinal is beautiful.

You've created a beautiful digital painting from Stringbean's lovely photo of the red Cardinal perched on the branch with the snow falling around it, Diane. The colours you used are perfect and the light and shade just right. Excellent digital art composition. Suzanne

Wow! I had to really look and read your notes to be sure this wasn't a photograph! This is a beautiful digital artwork, the Cardinal is very well created with realistic shape and structure, I like his pose on the Branch and placement in the frame, beautiful details are very well applied here! This is awesome! It was a pleasure to view!
