no avatar to achieve a 'chinese painting' effect, the colors should be less vibrant, perhaps add more tonal difference of scene near and far. Good entry

Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment. As for the dark edges, I do not see anything wrong, remember that this is a watercolor effect attempt, and when you use real watercolos you leave some darker marks in some areas. Any way, I thank you for your comment....!

avatar pitzapie chinese style like it. You can try changing the angle of the other birds a bit to make it look like they did not come from a single source
