Oh how beautiful. :) Make that a "yay". :)

do you have a list somewhere of all the totems you've done and the various meanings?

I've never seen Robin quite so graceful. Of course, robins are all over the place here, so I think I take them for granted. This is a valuable reminder about that.

*breaks into song*
He rocks in the treetops all day long
A hoppin' and a boppin' and a singin' his song

*ahem* Sorry, just had to. :-P The eyes on your critters get more and more lifelike. This is very lovely.

:-o

the COLORS....

I'm not overfond of robins, myself--had to take care of too many baby robins at the wildlife center, and my impression was that they were messy and greedy and there were way too many of them and they didn't have the redeeming point of being as intelligent as other equally messy, greedy birds that I do like...

...but this picture, nonetheless, is beautiful and I am awed (and slightly overwhelmed!) by all the colors!

Holy Moly, It's Robin!

Aw, it's lovely.

You really ought to do a 'Guide to Bird Totems' book - your birdies always shine so brightly.

It's been too long since I've seen a real live robin. I've hand-raised so many of them living in Washington & Tennessee - there's none here in the Great Big Empty.

So pretty! The colours just all go really well together, and really suit the robin. :D

Eee! Fucks sake, that's gorgeous! Wow!

*glomps you out of robin-inspired joy!*

I don't know why but for some reason, his face looks sad. Or more, resigned?

[aleia-kali.livejournal.com]

wow the colouring is beautiful, your art never ceases to amaze me

Hey! There's my little buddy! *squeal!*

I used to see them everywhere, but then I moved a few hundred miles and they aren't nearly as common ;-; It saddens me a bit. But at least they're here.

OH wow. Soooo pretty.

[zenosaur.livejournal.com]

Oh, wow! I've loved robins ever since I was little, and coming from an avid birder, I think you caught this bird perfectly!

I find this an incredibly emotive and expressive piece -- almost like Robin is sharing the whole gamut of emotional experience with us. Nice job! :)

That's pretty
