This design captures the beauty of a Flamingo poised in rest in the lapping waves of an ocean shore at sunset. I continue to be inspired by the birdsong around me in the early  morning or dusk, just before night falls.  I also made a nod to the beautiful bird of paradise, and its vibrant colors when in full bloom. Both play so well together and remind me of the special memories we created when living in Florida.
