WATERBIRD IN FLIGHT

When going bird watching, which is a favourite pastime of mine, I am sometimes struck by the stillness of waterbirds. This is what I wanted to convey in this painting. By avoiding painting a lot of detail I feel that I achieved my goal. The strong red of the chestband and feet gives the painting a lift and contrasts the rest of the colour scheme.
The painting is framed in a 3cm wide, soft golden timber frame, ready to hang.
It can be a partner painting to the "MASKED LAPWING" also for sale here on Bluethumb

With my paintings I try to convey happiness and pleasure; a respite from daily stress and anxiety.I was born in Germany and came to Australia in 1970 where it didn’t take long to be seduced by the beauty of my newly adopted country. The exotic flora and fauna that inhabit my work is a direct response to this captivating world around me. For me‚ creating art is a natural and intimate process which keeps my work fresh and spontaneous.
