True art in the hands and heart The fine art print is beautiful. It looks even better in person. I ordered it as a gift for a bird lover. By mistake, they sent me a different one, and Mr. Sosa had the wonderful gesture of gifting me the incorrect one and sending me the one I had ordered, which allowed me to give a truly magnificent gift. Both are beautiful. Thank you for your generosity. The person who received them is a follower of your paintings and was immensely happy. Many thanks.
European turtle dove I have this painting, and others too, a marvel. I have my home adorned with several paintings by Manuel: a Song Thrush, a Common Snipe, a Common Quail. If my house were bigger, I would have more. Thank you Manuel for making these paintings more accessible.
I was able to customize the fine art prints Many thanks for your help, very professional and approachable. I wish you all the best!

Rafael G. -
What a wintery, intimate, and beautifully executed scene, Manuel! The woodcock (or Eurasian woodcock) is the ghost of the forest par excellence, a mythical bird for naturalists and hunters due to its extraordinary camouflage. Capturing them in the dead of winter on snowy ground highlights this quality enormously.
I am amazed by the superb handling of the subtle shadows and bluish reflections on the snow, contrasting beautifully with the brown and ocher tones and the intricate plumage pattern of the pair of woodcocks sheltered among the brushwood and blades of dry grass. The winter sunlight filtering in from the side lends it an atmosphere that is cold yet cozy at the same time.
A piece with a wonderful northern and woodland feel
