Dove Love

Acrylic on 8x10 moleskin paper.
By Dean H.

James Parker did a fine white dove as part of his beautiful entry. I have to second the motion (emotion). So I painted my version.The mourning dove...The very epitome and symbol of peace.

Words that, to me, describe one of my favorite birds, the dove....muted colors...soft cooing call...vulnerable and non-threatening.

This is my entry into Camille LaRue Olsen's moleskin. Her theme is Peace. Hope you like it, Camille!

This will soon be coming to you, Vern.

Genesis 8:11 When the dove returned to him in the evening, there in its beak was a freshly plucked olive leaf! Then Noah knew that the water had receded from the earth.
