Pardalote and Silver Princesses

Acrylic on wood, ready to hang.

Signed on the front.

A sweet abstract pardalote is perched on a branch surrounded by Silver Princess gums and leaves.

The organic blocks hold an array of blues, greens and magenta-pinks which contrast with the black, white and oranges in the bird.

The stylized elements are built up in lightly textured layers and held together by intentionally organic lines to add a sense of softness.

Painted on a wooden board it can be hung as is or framed.

The board measures 30.5x40.9cm and is 4cm deep.

Painted with artists quality acrylics and finished with a satin varnish
