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!

Esteban Romero -
You break the usual stillness of animal portraiture to capture the climax of the battle: that large male on the left, suspended in mid-air in full leap, raising its enormous curved horns before dropping with its full weight. The opponent, planted firmly on the rock and alpine pasture, withstands the charge with an impressive fixity in its golden gaze.
Technically, the balance between the hyperrealism of the animals and the minimalism of the background is sublime. You have rendered the dark, winter coat of the males with a millimeter-level of detail, defining the tensed musculature with energetic and precise brushstrokes. Meanwhile, the high-mountain environment subtly merges with the whites of the paper through clean washes of grayish and purplish tones that suggest the mist and cold air of the Gredos or Guadarrama peaks. It is a work that exudes altitude, stone, and wild bravery.
