Description This latest artwork took me about four days to create. Tentatively titled “The Harbinger Birds”, the artwork has a bit of a yin yang feel, with the red eagle representing aggression, passion, violence, and action, while the blue peacock represents peace, tranquility, introspection and wisdom. This is a mixed media artwork (Liquid gold leaf, oil pastels, colored pencils, ink markers) on Canson paper, measuring 19×25 inches.

I saw the yin-yang thing before reading the text... amazing.
I loved the opposite things: "aggression, passion, violence, action" and "peace, tranquility, introspection, wisdom"
The 2 birds represent this very well...
And, course, I loved the colors...

Thanks Sidnei
I was not originally planning on doing the yin yang thing but as I worked on the sketch it seemed the natural course to go due to the postures of the two birds. Anyway, thanks for taking a look
