Flamingo-Horse

Animals, like humans, each carry a unique medicine or essence. The flamingos medicine teaches us that we are what we consume. Did you know that flamingos are born white/gray? They get their pink color from carotenoid pigments in their diet. They mostly consume shrimp and small crustaceans that contain carotenoids (the same family of pigments that make carrots orange). The more carotenoids in their diet, the brighter pink they become. Nature’s color theory at work! 

Mediums Used:
Watercolor on Paper
