Honeyeaters in the Grevillea Bush

A pair of Lewin's Honeyeaters are perched on grevillea branches with sweet wax flowers. The Lewin's honeyeaters are softly coloured with yellow ear patches and striking under eye markings.

Painted in an art nouveau style with sweeping organic lines and stylized elements.

Washes of loose and in places heavier watercolours and all held together by a framework of delicate ink linework which gives a stained glass effect.
