Male and female of Ruby-throated Hummingbird (Archilochus colubris) and Black-chinned Hummingbird (Archilochus alexandrii)
along with the plant Red Buck-eye (Aesculus pavia)
Now, i got to send the original painting for the final round of judging at Hampshire, England. Each category will have just one winner. and their artwork will be displayed at the annual exhibition of the Marwell International Wildlife Art Society and published in BBC Wildlife Magazine.
Well.. getting through this final round is certainly a tough luck with the many amazing artists by my side. But however, just to know that out of more than 700 entries, they turned to look again at my painting... is an incredible feeling by itself !!!

Dear Sangeetha,
It seems to be impossible to make contact with you other than through this comment page, so I'm posting my earlier email to you here.
We are a small book publisher in London and are currently urgently looking for a bird illustrator/artist in India to do a substantial amount of artworks for us. Would you be able to help in any way pointing us towards the right person?
Kind regards, and many thanks.
