"Feeling left out."
I took the advice I received and dulled the white birdhouses so they didn't compete for attention with the birds. I also added some shimmering red berries to the tree and bush in the opposite corners, hoping to counter the strong diagonal line between the two birds.
I scanned the image in two passes and in Photoshop stuck them back together. I hope this helps show the true color palette.
I'm busy working on illustration #3. I have layered the background with letters from my grandmother and am waiting for it to dry. I'm having lots of fun with this! I've saved piles of letters over the years and it's nice to pull them out and turn them into art materials.

Hey Stacia works much better now tonally! Maybe you need to zing up a focal point?
The texture around the dark circles shows up better now
Yes, that's my problem...I have two birds, sitting on two structures and the eye just goes back and forth.
I was wondering about painting over the text in their bodies and then putting a phrase of text in the tree above their heads.
Or I could put text between the birds as if it is coming from the top bird's mouth...hmmm.
