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!

What impresses is the dynamism of the diagonal composition. You have captured the pair breaking through the air in perfect synchronicity. The male in the foreground is superb, showing that slender and aristocratic silhouette that characterizes it, topped by the central tail feathers, long and sharp as needles, which give it the name pintail. The detailing of the wing speculum, with that bronzed, green, and black flash flanked by white, is rendered with a delicacy in the brushwork that is only achieved after years of meticulous observation.
The play of lights and water transparencies is sublime. While the birds display a clean and hyperrealistic drawing, the wetland background blurs towards the edges of the paper with masterful watercolor washes, alternating the ocher tones of the marsh vegetation with the leaden and violet reflections of a storm sky beginning to open up. You manage to make the birds stand out with superb clarity, conveying a truly exciting sense of altitude, humidity, and wind.
