Thanks so much - it's one of the last traditional pieces I did before going all-digital in 2004.

Lovely painting, I like the composition and the position of the bird within the frame, your use of colour and I particularly like the textures! :)

Thank you! The rocks were done mostly in wc, the soft waves are cp on top of light washes of wc. The bird is all cp. I'm glad you like the design!

You're welcome! I think it's lovely how you combined it, I really love the textures in the rock!
