The Anatomy of Bigeon (B4)

Free full time-lapse vid on my Patreon

If I didn't do this on Premiere Pro and moved to After Effects, this would've been much more interesting to watch, so maybe this is just a teaser for more interesting time-lapses to come?

Here's the song credit: B4 by Ginger Root - as I've been on a GR stint as of late, and it felt like it fit with Bigeon, especially since you all have seen him B4.

Song Pick: Holy Hell by Ginger Root

Hey! So apologies for my unplanned hiatus, a lot has spontaneously happened which taken precedence which overwhelmed me.

But now I'm working my way back to post again.

Also I'm now going to be sharing a song of the week/day/moment, whatever emits the art's energy or just how I was feeling.

Here's a Hooded Merganser Duck I drew for the 7th International Sea Duck Conference Art Exhibition and Contest!

A Souvenir: A Hooded Merganser floating away with a sketch of himself (feasting on a fish), a souvenir by the artist. This implies the human connection, during the sketch and after, including the artist's visual interpretation of the Hooded Merganser translated onto paper.

Congrats to the winner and runner up!

Happy New Year's! Here's my 2023 art summary.

Aaand of course it's nothing but birds (except the Inktober one). It's been pretty busy this last few months so hopefully I can get more art out besides birds this time around!

Hey, I really hate to be this person, but I suspect that your Palestine sunbird stamp art might actually be referenced off the wrong species - I don't know if you're aware but there is another species more commonly known as the orange-tufted sunbird, Cinnyris bouvieri (the Palestine sunbird is Cinnyris osea), which occurs in Africa. C. bouvieri has a green throat & blue & red patches on the chest, while the Palestine sunbird has a more uniformly purplish throat & chest with no red markings.

It's not a problem at all, I never want to make the wrong move, especially for such an important cause.

Looking through from my reference and Google, trying to figure out what caused this error, made me realize that that was exactly what you just described.

I mistakenly only searched for references under the 'orange-tufted sunbird' name, as it said "[Cinnyris osea] also known as the orange-tufted sunbird, a name also used for the similar Cinnyris bouvieri" on Wikipedia.

So I apologize for not double-checking the source material and painting a completely different bird for this, and thank you for bringing it to my attention!! I'm going to quickly edit and change the image. Hopefully people reblog the update instead of the error, even though the damage has been done 😔...

Today's Fat Bird Friday, I wanted to honour the Palestine Sunbird (Cinnyris osea).

In 2015, the 'orange-tufted sunbird' was declared a Palestinian national bird after Israeli authorities tried to change its name in their efforts to erase Palestinian identity. [x] [x]

Not to be confused with the Cinnyris bouvieri, who shares the same name, 'orange-tufted sunbird'. This is the accurate, correct bird for this stamp, apologies for the major error.

I drew a stamp of Palestine Sunbird hanging on an olive branch, (olive trees representative of Palestine), top right signifying the 75th anniversary of Nakba, and last but not least, the quote at the top right corner: “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” is the hope in Palestine being free one day.

Also, normally reserve the time-lapse for Patreon members, but I feel like it's not the move to monetize this. So here is the time-lapse from CSP (the last touches were done on Photoshop, which is why it wasn't recorded).
