Kookaburra Chick

I am familiar with silhouette artworks which I believe generally tend to have a very crisp look. In this instance however, mine has a more organic look and feel which is more my style.

Layers of similar organic shapes in the intuitive base, followed by the imagery, firstly created by blind contour drawing then painted with sepia coloured acrylic ink and paint which has created a minimalistic look to this artwork.

Once I created my young kookaburra perching on his branch I added a little detail here and there followed by touch of a golden glaze, to finish this piece off.

Someone who appreciates simplicity would enjoy this silhouette style artwork along with its limited colour palette.

Framing required for Kookaburra Chick to hang therefore my artwork photos include examples of how this piece could look framed and hung.

As always, please check dimensions as insitu images for display purposes only and may not be to scale.
