Painting: My Favorite White-winged Dove

Hi Folks;

Took original photo moments after sunrise with pink sky and Dove illuminated on Cholla cactus. Painted it in MS Digital Image Studio Suite 9

Comments very welcome & appreciated

Keep smiling

Like the colors and the PP. I am slightly bothered by the eye. Wonder if masking out an original eye may improve the eye. Nice job.

Gus,

I like the colors, painting effect and pose in this one. I agree with Nick about the eye.

OK Folks;

Though last 2, comments were that eye be less than actual. I personally like this one better with original eye.

The original eye looks better , IMHO. Just my taste. I like the treatment to the Dove , but find the Bg a bit distracting. seems too busy.

Gus, As far as the eye goes-I think it varies on the image. I like the repost on this one and I love your new painted style that you have been posting.

Gus, I enjoy your painterly stile and I like the repost on this image. TFS
