The 3 birds

What do all these birds have in common? Wanted to make a fun loud picture with the fire of the phoenix and coolness of the peacock meshing together in almost a yin yang and the pelican as the neutral middle. Excited that it is my first non surf art piece but i miss doing waves and boards so it will be a while before i stray again.

Surfing time

Here is the latest piece of surf art. I recently bought my first pad of arches paper. I got cold pressed and the divites are way to big. It is made for water color and since it it $30 for 16 sheets, its going to be a while before i get another.
