I love the light in the grass under the birds...perfect! And the scratchy texture of the background is great too! Love your work! Your color palette is delicious! :)
Mary, I had to come back and see it some more. Sooooo beautiful. The lime green grass in the sun is just fantastic and there's a dreamlike sense about the whole scene. For me, this is your masterpiece.
Hi Mary, Thank you for visiting my blog with nice comments. This is a lovely painting - lively and expressive! I became your 'instant' follower. Keep up the good work. Today I spent most of my time meeting new artists on this blogger planet. I have to admit that it could be very addictive. I better get back to my canvas for my new still painting that I just underpainted with acrylic last night, and now it's ready for the oil treatment. A little scared of my new experiment but should be fun. Come visit my blog again to see how the painting evolves, which I have no idea at this point.
wow what a terrific topic idea--and the colors are so vibrant! The blues in the background achieve that distance....the whole work is harmonious in color. Love it!

This is one of your best I've seen!! I have to stare at it some more now...
No, you just made it stronger - carefully crafting the light sides against the darker backgrounds. Perfect. Now don't TOUCH it! :)
These ibis (ibi?) are magnificent! You did well to go back and define them better.
great lighting effect mary,very dramatic...
really like what you are doing with color lately!
Wow, looks great Mary. I like how your birds have a glow to them.
OMG - Couldn't agree more with your baby brother and every one else! It's fabulous!
I like it, too. A lot! ;-)
