From 2007 - "Two Pelicans"

"Two Pelicans" (detail), Watercolor

G'day mates. And greetings from Australia!
While I'm away on vacation, I'm posting paintings of my bird series in watercolor from 2007. Here's a detail from a painting called "Two Pelicans". I loved the sparkle in this guy's eye, hence this detailed view. His beak was a brownish color, but I charged up the oranges and reds to make it more exciting. Enjoy!
Soon I hope to be back to a location where I can upload my paintings from Australia. Thanks for visiting, and stay tuned!
