Feathered Wonders

There is a reason birds have always found their way into art. They are at once familiar and elusive, ordinary and extraordinary, the kind of subject that rewards the artist who looks closely enough. This collection brings together a small selection of original bird art by Australian artists.

Three brown geese fly high over the water. This painting is a little nostalgic in it's colour and design. My grandmother always had three duck ornaments on the wall in my room when I stayed over and I stared at them for many hours, hence the inspiration for this painting and the many happy memories.
