Illustration Friday-Foggy

A little something different. I'd like to know what you think. A few hours work. Drew about 12 different bird poses in Freehand. Painted a background. Used a tree photo to extract my tree image and combined in Photoshop.

What do I think?! Wow, I fell over with delight. That cluster of birds is gorgeous; I could look at it all day. We'll not find better fog this week.
I felt like putting on my pashmina shawl and walk in the the beautiful flowered gardens of Paris - or maybe a walk in the Golden Gate Park since it is closer.
Gorgeous. I love the jade-green and softness in your lines. It is calm and I feel the cool wind against my cheek. A very good vignette you crafted, Mr. Cuzzo.
Wow, very cool.
i think it's great, passive, dreamy and good.
wow, this is lovely. i love that you did it monochromatic. i am in love with the birds.

Scott, Scott, Scott! This is marvelous! Had to give a little gasp when it first showed up on my screen. I love the swirls in the background, the ribbon of flying birds, the tree, the colors...everything!
Beautiful ... and I love hearing that people are still working in Freehand. I am all Illustrator now, but I have spend more than a few hours enjoying a good FH session or two.
Very nice graphic treatment. You've balanced all the elements well with the whole striking just the right balance. I particularly like the celtic knot style swirl background, a great depiction of fog.
This is superb, what an effective piece. Love the composition and graphic quality, also reminds me a little of 'The Birds', although less sinister! Would like to see more in this style :)
Great work, Scott!

I love this, it's beautiful, the design, colours, atmosphere, well everything really . . .!
Lots of soft movement and subdued color give it quiet drama. I like the swirls in the background and how they dissolve into the birds/fog. Beautifully done.

I think the swirls in the sky really make it~
Wow. That is very cool. I was wondering what you would do and you exceeded my expectation. Great use of texture and repetition to create texture. Great work.
You got the trifecta: great texture, color and movement. Outstanding!
Okay, I almost didn't post because with so many comments my fingers were getting tired from scrolling all the way down. I love your illustration. It's perfect for the topic. It was worth the exercise.
