Very nicely done, Judy! The painting effect and texture are just gorgeous, and excellent colors and comp. I notice an spot on the bird's head where the bird's color blends with the leaf behind it that I might clean up.
Hey Judy, this has a great fabric look to it. It makes me think of something my Aunt would have brought home from one of her trips to exotic places! :)
The bird looks nice but I think the seed pods are the stars of this image. Well done!
