Artwork Description

This painting is based on a photo by an old school friend. I was inspired by the vivid red against the complementary green of the background. The Red Robin sat serenely within the protection of the network of branches around it which gave a lovely framework around it.

Artist Bio

Kate Ryan is a West Australian oil painter. Kate is particularly interested in the play of light, shadow and colour temperature . “ There is a particular intensity of light and colour that is unique to Western Australia that provides us with endless, magical and fleeting moments of beauty in nature. I try to catch the essence of these transient moments in my paintings. “
Kate’s current focus is on coastal images, wild flowers and still-life. She enjoys the challenge of painting en plein air (outdoors) and from life but also enjoys time in her Floreat studio.
Kate has also had significant success with portraiture and has been a semi-finalist in the prestigious Black Swan (now, Lester Portrait Prize) competition. Her work is now in collections in the UK, USA, New Zealand and around Australia.
