I love looking at birds, after having captured them for years with my camera and in watercolour, I decided I wanted them to paint in oil.
Birds have been teaching me a lot, while observing them. They are so free, totally themselves, without any pretence.
They are authentic, free to be who they are. Even when ruffled in the birdbath, they don't mind the looks.
Each bird has its own character...like every one of us.
I love painting them, when they enjoy life to the full!
