The White Dove of the Desert sand I love the expression on

I love the expression on his face

Sometimes the magic just works

I really love the juicy rich warms in the legs and the crown and waddle and of course the stark contrast between blown out highlights and feathers

I'm told a dragonfly only extends it's wings while sleeping so it's ready in an instant to take off

I painted this using Brusho crystal powdered watercolor media and I painted it backwards using the Crystals last instead of first as I normally do

The White Dove of the Desert sand I love the expression onYou cant help but fall in love with this mission the first time you lay eyes on it. From the freeway its like a beacon in the desert and even more beautiful upclose and inside! Painting this was an honor I love the whites that aren't quite and the not quites that are. *Click Here for Fine Art Prints of this Painting!
