A lovely watercolor of the little sparrows on the hand that feeds them - an interesting point of view to draw it from - nicely presented Susan.

The photo of the sketch is well done from the original photograph which a great message - how much good one person can do. The composition and the colors are appealing.

    Well deserved.

It is always an amazing sight to see wild birds eating from the hands of people. Your painting reminds me of the Dove Lady in Mary Poppins. Your panting is excellently composed and rendered. The details and the colors are realistic. The sparrow with the open wings on the tip of her hand is especially intriguing. The painting is well framed. The composition is balanced.

a pretty little sketch with a lovely blue backwash. The birds which I perceive to be sparrows are nicely positioned on the hand and they are painted quite nicely although perhaps a little more detail and increased tones within their plumage wouldn't go amiss but overall a pleasant view

    Today I painted an abstract Sunset something I've never done before, you will find not one single pencil line in it all done with a brush.

Hey Susan!
Great work on these sparrows resting on this lady's hand. The sparrows are intriguing and draw the viewers attention. I like the contrast and the simple background. Thanks for the share!

A nice record of the kind gesture of the woman who fed the birds indeed! The colours are natural. So also the placement of the birds. The painting draws the eyes to it once it pops up the screen. Thanks for sharing!

a very good and very recent colored sketch with at least five house sparrows looking for some food on the lady's hand; good capture with the smartphone;

    One day Notre Dame will rise from the ashes of that catastrophic fire that almost destroyed it. And hopefully I will live to see it again.
