Hello Jean, I am the "buyer in MD" that just bought this beautiful print. My husband and I got married 6 yrs ago. While on our honeymoon, we met a very similar peacock and we still talk about him all the time. He roamed freely - and the resort absolutely was HIS kingdom. Got the picture last weekend and couldn't wait to give it to him (a week early) - HE LOVES IT! Thank you so much!

Lauri, Thank you so much for your kind note! I know that all the artists on here are always curious about who has bought their pieces. It's so wonderful to hear from you and know there's a special story behind your purchase. In Carlsbad, CA there's a park that has become public which used to be sort of a vacation or weekend estate of a Hollywood director. It's called Leo Carillo Ranch. They've kept some of the adobe buildings and horse stables there intact and there are hundreds of peacocks. I had such a fun time last year following them all around, but this turned out to be my absolute favorite photo that turned out more interesting with some digital fixes. Thanks again and enjoy!!
