I like this kind of stuff, Jerry.  Good choice of subject and colors for a painterly rendition.  Nicely done!

Hey Jerry,
I'm assuming this is a step a little out of your comfort zone as I don't believe I have ever seen you post in the Photo Art Gallery before (not in the last two or so years anyway). Man-O-Man you have jumped in with both feet and what a splash with this Beautiful Composition !
The elegant beauty of this presentation shows unusual effectiveness and simplicity that is very enjoyable viewing. The large version is outstanding with and treatment applied to the background complimenting the subject perfectly. The detail and color pallet are amazing and the angel of the perch really works to add interest.
Well done . . .  devil

This is beautiful.  Did you use oil painting on the bird and the wire, too, or just on the background?  The detail in the bird and the sharpness of the wire against the background are great.

Barbara, I used the oil painting effect on the entire image. Thanks for the comments.
