Yay! Thanks to people that gave me tips on Peregrines in the Flora and Fauna folder, I completed my picture and it has been accepted into the National Exhibition of Wildlife Art.

Pop along to the exhibition if you can , its on the Wirral, if anyone is nearby and likes wildlife art.

Here is my picture, titled "Strike" its pastel and charcoal.

I stopped working on the picture for a while not knowing what to have the bird killing, but a pigeon flew into the window and sacrificed itself. I posed its body to what I wanted and painted it into the pic :)

That's a lovely piece of art Firecrest and congratulations on getting it accepted into the exhibition. It thoroughly deserves it.

When will we be seeing your name sake? :)

That's one very nice piece of work, you almost expect the peregrine to move its wings at any moment.

Congratulations too for winning a place in the exhibition, hope this is the first of many :).

Best regards
Bobbin
