I'd like to see more room on the right for the birds to fly into and a bit more above. But I do like the idea, thanks for sharing it.

Yes I like this too -if there were some more canvas it would be great !
I can see this on the wall of an upbeat coffee house !

Love the motion and the very similar poses of both the birds. Only nits for me are the lack of space in front of the birds and the leg colour/saturation looks a bit too strong.

All points covered, but yes it works for me :smile:
