For today's #ArtAdventCalendar, here's a metallic or shining starling, a new to me bird that I stumbled across somewhere (probably on here). I love black birds because they are never truly black but instead an iridescence of other colors. And who doesn't love a red-eyed bird?
Digital painting of a metallic starling, a medium-sized songbird that appears black but is shining here with subtle shades of green and purple. It has a vivid red eye and gray beak and is perched on a branch against a dark, starry sky.

Stained glass design (I am not this good at putting s.g. it together - got some pros for that!) One big one for a hospital window, and small ones for family.
No coloured glass, but the Christmas lights outside are adding some pastels tonight!

A stylized stained glass window design with a half-circle sun in the bottom right corner that looks like an eye, with rays streaming out from it. In the centre foreground, a bird is flying away. It has long curving wings. It is lit from vehind with light blues and pinks.

the many ways near-winter paints
layers of air and layers of water frozen and unfrozen are streaked across with great strokes of color of time and season and light itself to the far horizon and back again

In Norse mythology, the woodpecker is primarily associated with the god Thor, god of thunder and lightning. The connection stems from the bird's characteristic hammering, which is thought to mimic the sound of thunder or the striking of Thor's magic hammer.

In an underwater scene, a sailfish, a mola, a mermaid whose flowing hair recalls marine algae, a dugong, and several golden trevally are grouped together in a vertically-oriented composition with some kelp against a black background. The illustration is drawn with intricate linework, with an emphasis on contours and varying line weight, and with areas of solid black ink.

"The Road Not Taken"... a poplar grove (cultivated) near Andrew, AB. i captured this in the fall when most of the leaves had fallen but there were still leaves on the trees in the background and the soft late afternoon light was filtering through them

A shot of a creek in November partially covered in ice. In the foreground, there is the metal trestles of a walking bridge. We are looking through a triangular portion of the trestle.

Those next days you see condensation on your windows - look again.
Look REALLY CLOSELY.
And maybe you'll see something similar to what @happytoshare.bsky.social saw AND photographed.

Today is a holiday, so I'm taking it easy and working on my art all day. The intricate details of this piece require such delicate work that I draw lines using only the weight of the ballpoint pen.

Timeline cleanse from an amazing evening when I saw clouds lit up by the moon AND lightning at the same time over the Boka Kotorska ...
