HIDE-N-SEEK - 4 1/2 x 4 1/2 pastel

HIDE-N-SEEK
4 1/2" x 4 1/2" pastel
8" square archival white matt, glass + gold frame
SOLD!

Regal and so tropical!

Flamingos have such a wonderful range of color 
and apparently they turn more colorful with an increase 
of krill in their diet. 

I live quite close to the San Diego zoo where there 
is a wonderful exhibit of these graceful creatures.

Have any in your yard?

    I'm really liking this flamingo series and all the beautiful colors in the birds and in the grasses.

    krill? I love that you know that.
    Beautiful Flamingos and lovely pastel work.
    Once in Florida I saw a large pink bird flying against the sun. It was a roseate spoonbill. Amazing sight.

    Thanks Kristeena and Elizabeth!
    A girl hanging in California always know about krill Mary. Actually one of my friend's Father was a leading scientist on krill.

    Anyone seen a baby flamingo? They're grey and fuzzy.Cuddly but not colorful.
