Yes, had I thought about it, I'd have realized that snow is unlikely in your neck of the woods...isn't it? Anyway, that is one absolutely gorgeous face! I noticed the blue eye immediately and love that light blue color in the feathers that make up the second bird head you mentioned in the markings. So cool to read of this interesting bird!Autumn Leaveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04010044052621228719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7094257402135517273.post-77031021526786464952010-09-03T01:39:11.328+02:002010-09-03T01:39:11.328+02:00Using non local colors for the background works so...Using non local colors for the background works so well in this painting.
