Description

This was a painting done for my mother a few years ago. Not as large as I usually like to paint. It's pretty close to the photo it was done from, all apologies, I lost the photographers name. But I will find it and post it. The photo is in a book of Birds of North America. (somewhere in my storage.) I was 5 years old when I was introduced to Falcons. They are powerful, amazing birds. If you ever have the opportunity to have one fly to you and eat from your hand, it's something you'll never forget. Acrylic and gouache on canvas on board. Original size 16" x 20" Thank you for visiting. Have an excellent day. PEACE www.acertainedge.com
