Kingfisher

Beautiful pastel Ann.Sometimes I catch sight of this most rare of birds on my local river.Maybe a couple of times every year.What you see is a flash of the most majestic colour for a fleeting moment or two and it leaves an impression that you never forget.A jewel that shines brighter than most.You have captured it beautifully.

A stunning pastel painting, the kingfisher stands out so well against that lovely background.

The loose, out of focus background works well here against the very accurately painted foreground.
