Firebird
Inspiration for this piece comes from reading about animals in the aftermath of forest fires (y'know, something light). The lack of foliage after a fire can give advantages to birds of prey, such as the Spotted Owl, making it easier for them to spot and kill prey. But in turn, the lack of cover puts them at greater risk of being hunted by bigger, opportunistic predators such as the Goshawk.
To try and add a bit more whimsy or fantasy to the piece, the Goshawk is wearing an antique flint fire starter.
Watercolor on rough-press paper, about 11 x 14"
