Aerial dance

Allens Rufous Hummingbirds Watercolor

I finally managed to order a nice scanner, so now I can post some of the nicer watercolors that I have done. I’m happy to start showing them off instead of just my little sketches.

Anyone who spends a lot of time watching hummingbirds knows that they are constantly battling it out for territory. It really seems like a dance to me because they never seem to actually touch each other. They just do their aerial ballet for control over the feeders.

I tried to keep the watercolors really loose so that way it would give more of that feeling of watching them since they seem to just be blurs of color in the sky. Hope you enjoy!
