Anna's Hummingbird Painting

[Gus Hallgren]

Hi Folks

Captured in our garden yesterday where we had numerous different birds visiting, none from London :D

Created using free Fotosketcher

CC's warmly invited

Nice image and the Fotosketcher adds a nice touch. Pretty soft golds.

Thanks for your kind words, Denise.

Here it is on blue

Gus, I like both but prefer the yellow - it's so cheery! I do think with the horizontal frame here it might be nice to have the bird moving more at an angle than straight up - maybe turn it so the head is pointing more at the 2 o'clock position instead of 12 - making him look like he's flying up and into the negative space on the right.

Another winner here!

Gus, this is gorgeous. I love the first one the best because I like the texture in the bg. You must have a nice backyard:)

Like the contrast between the BG and the bird. Good details in the hummer Gus. Another vote for the first.

Beautiful work, Gus. You're certainly the master at these digital paintings! :) Nice pose, details, and BG texture. I like both versions about equally.
