This vibrant coral flamingo ponders the water below, hoping for a meal. Behind it the orange sun slips slowly into the gulf, the end of another perfect day. This pretty flamingo uses one of my most favorite watercolors - Daniel Smith's Quinacridone Coral. I was so delighted with the way the color looked, I knew that it needed a bright colorful image to go with the bright color. Starting with a lazy "S" I realized that it was forming the shape of an elegant bird. I loved the look so much that I kept at it until I came up with the image you see here.
