Comment from Jewell McChesney
I thought I already reviewed this image but perhaps you have redone it?
I love everything about this painting. Your shadow work is excellent and I love the details in the wings and tail!
The addition of the rainbow is great!

Thank you so much, special artist friend. No, I just uploaded it a few days back. I did weaken the rainbow so the bird would be more in focus. I originally started to enter it in another contest, but you won that contest so I am glad I did not enter in time. And your work for that colorful art contest was another outstanding work. Love you.

This is absolutely beautiful! I love the soft texture. The bird is gorgeous, and I love the added touch of the rainbow in the background. Great job and best of luck!

You are so kind with that "clapping" and kind words with this interview. It greatly encouraged me. Thanks for liking and for the "6".

Comment from Brendaartwork18
This is an amazingly good piece of art that gives us a perfect view of your red, red, bird. Good notes. Excellent construction, fine drawing and a vibeant and attractive colour pallet makes this a possible winner.

Comment from seshadri_sreenivasan
Your painting is captivating. It captures a moment as the bird appears to be analyzing the situation. To fly off or not to pose:) The composition beautifully showcases its colours and its graceful presence against a natural backdrop. One point of observation is on my computer the larger pic looks a bit blurred. Please check it out and sharpen it if you find it necessary. Good luck!

Thank you for the interview, artist friend. I hope the part looking blurred is the rainbow fading only, like I intended, not the bird which is the focal point for the color red. Please let me know so I can sharpen or fix it. Thanks.

A good looking image posted here into the competition! Your fine and classical composition offers us an enjoyable view of that beautiful bird and its location. Colours, textures and tones are good. Well drawn and good luck!
