My rainbow sherbet peacock !

The Summer of Color is an 'icy' cool challenge as it has taken its inspiration from 'Ice creams' :)

Now the theme for the first week is the flavour 'Rainbow sherbet' . I love using bright colors in my art especially when the theme here reminds of my very own country India :)

I chose to draw and paint a peacock using the theme colors fuschia, orange, yellow and white.



His rainbow plumage vibrant and beautiful...
His majestic walk elegant and cheerful...
A carnival of glowing colors...feathers of unique fashion
A beauty with a difference ...God's magical creation...

A peacock to me is a constant source pf inspiration.

Thoroughly enjoyed creating a rainbow sherbet peacock :)
