Description
The Whirbird, clockwork hummingbird with gears, brass and nickel keyfeathers, a glass heart, and a touch of the Elsewhere.Original is really large, I think 18x24 inches, and is all colored pencil. The background was smashed in using Prismacolor Art Stix, which are pastel shaped chunks of woodless colored pencil lead.

The Humingbird expresses beauty and harmony in a small form. It's agile and almost invisible. Beautiful! Love the use of colors.

Holy cow! You've just doubled your views / hits amount in a single day! And after so long, too! It's nice to get suddenly recognized, isn't it?
Fantastic job, Amanda Hill. I'm very impressed with your perception and keen eye. You put so much detail into this piece. It really rather lovely. It's impossible for me to find anything to critique. Everything you've done is very much "on purpose" and adds to the overall piece. It's anatomically correct. And, while it's supposed to be artificial, its perfection gives it that 'alive' feeling - very Pinocchio-esque.
Beautiful job.
