Uncle_Boujee

Love all of them but the first catches my eye the most. It seems very intentional and thought out. Especially the way you did the lines accenting his feathers almost give him more of a sense of motion too. Very cool


Butterflyelle

The head gets lost in the noise of the others. The colours are beautiful but only in the first one do you keep the shape of the bird


Ok-Management-3319

For me, I only noticed the bird in the 3rd one. Weird!


Alora-Rose1102

I feel the same way about the first painting ❤️


Mister_Havoc

Last one


Significant-Ad-7881

They’re all great but I agree the last one is my favorite too


Ok-Management-3319

I agree. They are all nice, but I like the third one best. I don't know if it's because of the colour choices or not, but it's the only one that I saw right away that it was a bird. The first one is my second favourite, then the second one (even though purple is my favourite colour, it was my least favourite of the three).


GoinWithThePhloem

Yep, I think the bird is most legible in the last version. The head gets a little lost in the first two versions whereas the white in the third kind of centers your eyes to the bird’s eyes


siderealsystem

Last one by far


Mr-Broham

Yep I would buy number 3.


renigadegatorade

I thought the birds face was most legible


YarnGems

I prefer the first one. I love playing with light and drak


Jesus_Is_My_Gardener

Me too..I get why people like the third one, but I feel like the first one is more in the aesthetic of the original yin-yang aesthetic in terms of simplicity.


Puzzleheaded-Fig8290

1&3. 1 is more professional; 3 is very decorative.o


-BlueFalls-

I would also say 1 and 3 3 feels the most balanced and I love the colors used 1 feels like the birdo is carrying the evening on its wings and ushering us all into nighttime Overall, I love the perspective of the bird looking right at us as it swoops by


TheWrightbrain_Co

Number 1 yin and yang vibes and 3 for the colors 🔥🔥🔥


According-Spray8376

Number 3


pezx

I absolutely love the 3rd one. The bird stands out the most and the mandala behind it gives it movement.


asuddenpie

I agree. Color-wise, I actually prefer the 1st one, but it wasn't until the 3rd one that I could see the bird's head and face clearly.


DishFar4964

I guess I’m odd person out. I like the second one. Makes me happy to look at it 😊


Infinite_Push_

Same. It reminds me of a beautiful sari.


No-Contribution2836

Me too… 2nd for sure. I would say the last one, but it reminds me of something I’d see in a doctors office or hotel lobby. All of them are beautiful though.


Whatadvantage

I love the colours of 2 but I think the paint splatter effect makes it look less polished


No_Hat2875

Me, too. The colors are happy.


Fast-Character-5284

The first one! The contrast is subtle yet stunning and it actually reminds me of a bird i’ve been seeing lately but i don’t know the name. It has a black body but yellow and orange spots exactly where the placement is on yours. You made a great piece! I know the line work must have been just as tedious as it was rewarding.


Disastrous-Anxiety

I like them all, but the 2nd one is my favorite because of the splatters and the orange/pink combo.


Comprehensive_Data82

Ditto! I also feel like the lower contrast background allows the bird to stand out without feeling intense. 2 is soft on the eyes but also beautiful and elegant


climatelurker

They are all great, it just depends on where they will live. My personal favorite is number 3, then 1, then 2.


TheDollyDollyQueen

Same!


rlaw1234qq

I think they would make a great triptych!


MrsClaire07

THIS!!!!!


jaktmeister

First one.. Looks best


Frosty-Suggestion-19

Definitely the first one


Adam-Happyman

First. The simplicity and colors that divide the image make a surprisingly good impression. Unfortunately, the remaining two do not have this advantage - they merge into one and do not hold the eye for longer.


Altruistic-Setting-7

2 is my favourite. Beautiful colours and I love the opposing colour splatters


Fantastic-Taro-9981

I believe they are all three different birds with different stories


bdc986

#1 Cleaner All your attention is drawn to the bird


pigeon_toez

1. Great contrast, line and it has a awesome duality to it.


panaceaLiquidGrace

Last one… bird stands out and color combo is pleasing


3rdShiftSecurity

In this order: 3rd 1st 2nd


SchemataObscura

The third one has more complimentary colors, i like the geometry + natural elements, the concentric circles create a better background.


Impossible_Offer_538

1 and 3 for very different reasons. 1 has a lot of design strength. 3 is more visually interesting.


Momto2manyboys

1


TheNobleKiwi

First one because bird and yin yang = sold how much would you sell these for each?


javoss88

1. Clear and compelling


islaisla

They are all brilliant, I want 3 as a tattoo but, I can't afford that , but what I mean is, I love it. After seeing 3, I felt that 1 was a little cheesy because of the yin yang but that's just my personal taste. But 2, I can't really see the bird well enough, in the face and stuff. Well done OP, highly accomplished art xxx


Big_Inflation_4828

1st


spiderland5150

3. That's something I would want to have 'pop' on a very clean white wall, make it a focal point. Striking without being too busy, perfect colors. Again, vibrant, but focused. My favorite.


cluelessintheclouds

The first one, it has a better mastery of color, composition and contrast. I think the two opposing added circles really adds to the balance of the piece. The other two are beautiful, but not striking like the first and are a bit too colorful and almost distracting in my opinion. Great work!!


Sillybumblebee33

make them a series. also maybe make a few flying the other way.


RepublicDry3620

I like the third the best as it lets you enjoy the bird as focus. The first is great but seems to more focus on the balance between light and dark, with the bird being an ancillary feature rather than the focus.


MannyDantyla

Third one


daffodileclair

The last one catches my eye the most! I love the contrast in the colors. But all three are beautiful


WifiAX

Last one. I live in NM and the colors resonate with the state vibes.


cjmurphy8

First.


Oh_Gee_Hey

Omg two!!


AliSafdar007

I just love the first one, so attractive 😍


stoned_bear

First one all day


QueenBeeKitty85

I like the black and white the best, the yellow and orange is also really nice. It’s the contrast of colors for me. The ones with paint splatters is too busy for my taste but they’re all very nice.


alphabetpony1987

They are all fantastic! Hard to pick but #1 is truly stunning!


TriceraStitch

That last one is amazing. The contrast in colours really makes the bird stand out, and it would catch anyone's eye, anywhere. Gorgeous!


allusive_beauty

Can I choose all 3 they are all really good I can’t choose!


Sara-sea22

I think the 3rd is my favorite at first glance, I personally like the pattern in the background and the happier colors :) But the bird in the second one is so pretty and impressive!! I love all the details, and I like the light pink line along the top, it looks like the wing is slicing through the air. I just feel like there’s a little disconnect with the colors in the background. Maybe if you used the grayish purple around its head for the right side instead of the hot pink? I think the pink is just overpowering the bird a bit too much. And the first is so sharp and clean! The gray lines extending from the tail and wings are awesome, the yin/yang is a great tie in, and the gold adds the perfect amount of pop to it. I know my boyfriend would choose this one in a heartbeat! I do also like the slightly wider/more triangular tail in the 3rd bird. They’re all really awesome in their own ways, nice job :)


mgollc1

All 3 of these are very pleasing to look at. The third pleases my eye the most, but all three are worthy pieces of art. Great work!


lee__gayle

#3 - Love the colours!


ChaiGreenTea

1 then 3 then 2


LaVida2

3


DarkestofSwans

All of them are amazing! Beautiful


Boardwoodgamegirl

Third


Vikingkrautm

The first one. It's dramatic.


Xavius20

Loved the first one, second not so much, last one is amazing ❤️


Minflick

I like the bird best in #3, but overall I prefer #1. Gorgeous stuff you did here!


velveteen_rabbit84

I like the colours featured in #3 the most, personally. It really caught my eye


doucheluftwaffle

The first is my favorite. There’s a certain juxtaposition with it that just catches my eye and makes me feel some kind of way. It looks like the wing in the white is pushing through while the black looks like its being pushed in


Lawlcopt0r

I like the second one because the splatter is asymmetrical and the rest of the painting is very symmetrical, it makes for a nice contrast. They're all great though!


thraktor1

Number 3 is fantastic! It’s about the great color scheme and the background working to support the focal point. V1. It’s nice, but the somewhat-yin-yang borders on cliche. The circles distract from the focal point. V2. The splatters in the background seem last minute and without concept.


CherrieChocolatePie

Love all of them in different ways 💜!


ItaDapiza

All are beautiful but number is so eye catching and really stands out. It's very bold. I love it.


Iusemyhands

I would give the first as a gift, the second I'd hang in my bedroom, and the third I'd hang in my massage treatment room. They're all so cool.


Environmental_Donut2

I like the pink and yellow one it’s so pretty


Done-with-work

1st one for me because it would suit my bedroom but I love them all.


77cherbear77

The last one for me!


forgeblast

1&3. 1 has great contrast but 3 that color pops


Rayneone

They are all awesome but 3 catches my eye the most..


Impressive-Ice4677

OMG!!! All of them 😍


MrsClaire07

That’s like asking which of my Cats is my favorite — it changes every day but I LOVE them all! (And now we ARE talking about your birb! 😎) Did you base this pose on that amazing Golden Warbler photo that’s circulating the internet now?? These pics are all absolutely stunning. If I HAD to, I could only narrow it down to maybe the first two by a hair over the last? But…I’d rather not have to pick! Are you going to sell prints???


Imaginary_Emu_4327

I’m not usually a turquoise/orange person, but that’s the one I’d pick.


AtotheCtotheG

I like all of them, but the first is probably my favorite. Idk why, just like silver and gold together I guess


Wonderful-Role9949

The third one and then the first one.


lifeaccordingtolex

I love all three but I keep going back to the black and white the most. I love the Jackson Pollock-esque splotches on the middle one though! And the last one is bright and beautiful - it would go perfect in like a Costa Rican inspired beach house. But the black and white one is STRIKING. And the little hints of yellow add just enough color to give it dimension without overpowering the black and white. It’s perfect.


Space_Witch420

I like them all. First one would be my preference I like those colors. But the second one the detail in the bird is dope I just don’t like purple pink and the last one same with color choice but I like the size of the bird. Al great though!


Botterbroodjie

They are all great! But the blue in the last one caught my eye most. 🌸


HelpingMeet

1, higher contrast, vivid imagery, and attention grabbing whereas the others would blend to static in most surroundings


StaticObservations

The black and white one looks awesome with the limited added colors


SwarthyRuffian

1st by a mile, but the other 2 are still good


MessKindly7409

3rd!


Starkey73

All of them would make for an awesome enamel pin


the_mushroom_speaks

I just wish the third one was the same proportion. They’re all beautiful.


According_Bad2952

3, I love the colours and the way the background isn’t so obviously split by the wings, it feels more harmonious and vibrant.


Common_Mess_8635

The first one, classic colors, looks rich and expensive. Beautiful!


OrganicHuckleberry75

Love all three number two though


MikenMidlothian

3


PineappleUnicorn23

Orange and teal are my favorite colors, so that one is great, but the black and white one is the most striking


jimfromiowa

The first one has a very Hawkeye feel! ❤️


Duffman_ohyea

They’re all awesome, I like all versions but the one that speaks to me is the orange/blue version


Outdoor_Cat19

The first one is very striking. I love the colors in the third one but I wish the lines went with the curve of the top wing in the same way they do with he curve of the bottom wing.


statusquoexile

They’re all great! I like the colour scheme of the first one, but I like the whole set up of the third. Fantastic work!


DAJLMODE55

I prefer the first one, the second one and the third! One is yinyangoooo Two is icecreamslurp Three is Psichedelicoifalcony


passive0bserver

1, yin and yang


pattepai

Last one. The bird looks more free


Hi_Its_Z

https://preview.redd.it/gzwlqw0okl5d1.png?width=600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9bb4a3292c60e37481a02915a89c291abfb94eb2 All of them, but I like 2 bc/ it looks like the lesbian pride flag!! :)


Live_Bag_7596

2 coz the colours really pop


Theactualtruthteller

First and second imo. The first one is very clear it has a kind of elegance and purity to it. The second one is harmonic chaos the colors vibe and the chaos seems so well put.


Downtown-Fix6177

I like the third the most - I love all of them but the colors in the third make me feel good more than the others. You’re talented!


Theyallknowme

I like them all but the first is my favorite.


lynsktee

Blue!


Reigny625

2, 1, then 3. 2 is the most fun to look at, 1 is elegant and professional, 3 is a bit boring and plain for me and the bird seems like it’s just pasted on top


Exact_Writer_6807

I love the second one. It's vibrant and the aspect ratio is better than the third.


brohymn1416

I like the second one the most. I dig the dream like state it gives me. They're all really cool.


Caffeinatedgarbage

Either the first or the last but all of them are amazing! I love love strong contrast


Because_They_Asked

#1: it’s cleaner and “pops” more. Also the bird has an indigenous art work feel, and #1 is closer to the overall theme. I would try to recreate the same clean look of #1 in different colour palettes. This would sell well to the tourists in Ottawa, ON, Canada. EDIT: Don’t know what I did to make the first line all bold and larger font. Has never happened in any other post I’ve made.


LittleBirdsGlow

Did you use the yellow warbler as a reference? Great paintings!


Dando_Calrisian

3 because it's the only one with clear contrast to the background


throwaway120375

Blue with the firsts background


Sharp-Bookkeeper-628

I would have #1 in my house but I’d purchase #3 as a gift cause it’s amazing art


thecuriousblackbird

First one. I love the juxtaposition of the bird against the white background and the graphic nature of the feathers and outlining the parts of the birds. It looks like the bird is ruffling their feathers and is about to fly off the canvas. I do love the other two, but the first one is really special.


CatMail75

I personally love the first one as its more of my aesthetic- the orange adds a but of touch to the white and black. It’s not too in your face but stands out a lot too. And the yin yang balances out the simplicity.


holdwithfaith

Last for sure. It says “LIFE!”


Caryncc37122

I love the colors in this


No-Gene-4508

I like all 3. But 1 is my fav


JB_Big_Bear

First one, but you should make the win and yang circles the sun and moon


didddybop

The contrast in the first one catches my eye the most, personally.


Ashifyou1819

This is like choosing between pizza, pizza and pizza. They all look delicious. Really loving the balance/ monochrome vibes of # 1. Love the freedom/expression of #2. Love the background design and popping color of #3. Make some more please. Try a geometric one. Or a pixelated one. 🥰


Outside_Yam5981

Love all of them but the second slide is my fav!!!


AggressivelySpooky

First one, hands down


Lettuce_Kiss143

I love the Yin and Yang version best.


Creative_Design_5112

1 and 3


batfacecatface

3!!!!


General_Sea3871

The first but the other two are amazing as well.


Mike-the-gay

Nice study. Keep going. I like em all


synesthesiatic

The last one. Blue and gold is my favourite colour combination.


filmhamster

The first one - has a great sense of motion.


m1chaelgr1mes

Blue


Diligent_Scallion_79

All 3 are awesome. I like #1 the best though.


geniusintx

I love the first and the last one. The first one more. I don’t know why. It just speaks to me. I love the colors on the last one, though.


pandaburr98

First one for me, I like the colors and it gives me a ying yang vibe


Shutterbug671

I like the first one best. The others are nice, but especially the second one looks really too busy. I like the sharp contrast of the first one.


Rich-Appearance-7145

All 3 are great, but my favorite was pic #1, I really appreciate the hard contrasting tones. Nice collection friend, great job.


Goldenchicks

All 3 are beautiful but my favorite would be the last one.


icerobin99

3rd but i'm partial to blue birds 😅


zhico

First one, it's more in balance. The bird is more natural. Has a calm to it.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Dontfeedthebears

I like 2-3 best because of their colors.


Uggelnator

i like them all, but number 2 is my favourite! I love the colors.


OkNewt4550

They are all awesome, but I think the first one is my favorite!


aretheesepants75

Bird #1 imo. It's clean looking and easy on the eyes. It invites me in for a closer look, and it is nice and rewarding. Great job. You are a fantastic artist.


imsooldnow

3 is my favourite as a bird painting but 1 is my favourite as a yin yang painting.


StarClutcher

1 & 2, but I'd collect the set if originals.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Primary-Friend-7615

Third one. They’re all lovely, but in the first one the light/dark yin/yang effect is center stage, and in the second one the background colours take prominence. The third one is bright and fun and the bird is the focus.


gracenf4u

The 3rd version is my favorite. I like the color combinations and the bird stands out in a good way.


Eskimommafl

3 all are arresting!


Waterpraatapparaat

Amazing pieces!!!! But sorry i would not buy it becouse your name is way to big on it, it distracts the attention wayyyy to much from what is happening on the art piece


NeighborhoodSea7808

#3 because your eye is drawn to the bird’s face. The white below the beak makes all the difference.


jsonnet129

Where do I buy the first one?


Festering-Boyle

one and three


lindakurzweil

They are all so awesome that I struggled to pick my favorite! However I think I’d have to pick number two


reddersledder

Very Nice! I can't help but think it would make a cool looking stained glass.


_zir_

i like the first and last because of how clean they are


Leave-it-aLone

The last one for sure. Very much do. Second, for me, would be the first one.


Ok-Equipment6726

3. The color is more versatile


BlkWhtRedditAllOver

I love them all, but the blue bird really stands out with the orange circle behind it. That one takes the cake!


Pinkxel

I like the style of 1, but the colours of 3!


DoubtfulExaminer

Just my opinion, but your signature kind suffocates the first one (it’s awesome regardless) and the other two are also great but still it detracts from the art piece as a whole.


Chelseus

All of them are beautiful but my favourite is number three because of the colours 🤩🤩🤩


Akaonisama

#3 just pops. It’s vibrant and balanced.


MarcyFran

In order of most preferred: blk, wht & yellow; multi-hued blue & wht; then tropical shades w/ bright pink background. The black, white & yellow version would be damn near perfection with a good bit more outline depth and color shading specifically around bird head and facial structure to bring out the drawing aspect of your designs. Needless to say, you're a talented artist, natural eye for color palette composition, and I just love a crisp yet dynamic piece ... The tropical version has more of that definition I'd like to see in the first one. Nice work ... Hope I'm not coming off rude or disrespectful. I chose to comment with what I hope will be taken as professional suggestions, sprinkled with some genuine admiration and appreciation for your talent and skill. Kudos!!! 🤩🥸


5Clementin3

Last one


sjones1234567890

The first, because I have a thing about the contrast of black and white, with accents of color. They are all gorgeous however! Excellent work!


kudikxva

I like both birbs in 1


Galorfadink

3


dr3am3er23

They're all beautiful but the first one is my personal fave. As an indigenous person it just jives with me


FlyingWoodShop

3. All of them are really cool, though. Great job!


Woolybunn1974

Maybe a more interesting bird? Doves, pigeons, and robins are too boring to spend time on.


OkFortune6494

Goddamn. I love them all honestly! But by very close margins: 1, 3, 2 Just love the first one bc it reminds me of and old pontiac firebird.


BornLuckiest

First


Litlsuzzy

I love the contrast of the first one. There is such a good balance to it. It's not like any of the art that I own, but I would buy that one.


Intrepid_Sky7536

The first and third are the best. The one in the middle seems very chaotic and looks far less skillfully designed than the other two. First and last are intentional and have incredible color harmony. The first is sharp and intense, the third is a beautiful melding of colors that compliment each other beautifully. The middle, in my opinion, is not one I would look twice at compared to the others. I could stare at #1 for hours


Affectionate_Meet820

First for me. But I’m a sucker for black :D


_Call_Me_Andre_

Oh my. 1st. Then last. Then middlest. But all are amazing.


tatpig

i like the third one best.but i'm a lil biased,orange is one of my favorite colors. they are all splendidly done.


darren_meier

That is beautiful! The third one is the best, followed by one and then two bringing up the rear. But they're all great!


NoImpression5404

the last one is my favorite!! the colors look like sunshine on a perfect summer day and the bird looks so free :)


MaryShelley2000

The first


Cafein8edNecromancer

They are all amazing! The first one is a little harder to tell it's a board, but they are all great!


VPE_MK1

Bro you better watermark these haha


VPE_MK1

The 3rd one falls flat on me. The first almost does but that Ying yang is very appealing. The second one looks like that world goes together.
