    I love how beautifully detailed the birds and coliage are, creating such a vivid contrast with the central figure. It’s very emotional and touching. The composition, colours and painting are gorgeous. :)

  • mdaltonart replied

    Thank you for your comments. The central figure is oil and the collage is also accentuated with acrylic and marker.

    This is wonderful ,haven’t faced that moment yet, but it is close thankyou for the insight…x

  • mdaltonart replied

    Thanks for the comment. I faced it to a degree when my daughter left for college, although I still have my son at home. There is no question about it, the “nest” we nurture and care for changes forever at some point or other…
