This is “Eclipse Birds.”

Small silhouetted birds perch in the branches of a tree during a total solar eclipse.

This is one of my favorite paintings in the studio right now!

This is called a “diamond ring corona” because the starburst of light makes the sun’s corona look like a shining diamond on a ring.

The awe-inspiring scene is painted in gold, rose and violet colors.

The painting continues around the 2.5″ deep edges of the painting.

Watch a time-lapse video of me painting it!
