Oil on panel 16 x 12 in 40.64 x 30.48 cm
Scientific name: Recurvirostra.
One of my favourite birds and the nation emblem of the RSPB. Importantly the painting of birds is getting the perspective and being able to draw and getting the colours of the plumage right, in particular with serious bird watchers and experts in ornithology etc, you can’t leave anything out.
