Artwork Description

Cockatoos are lively, affectionate, cuddly birds and bond well with their owners. We see quite a lot of them here and have our own gang of cockatoos that like to wake us early in the morning with their calls and can be rather noisy. Despite this we are rather fond of some and I felt inspired to capture this beauty.

Cockatoos symbolize communication, spiritual awakening, and emotional release. Known for their striking appearance, loud calls, and highly social nature, they are widely viewed as divine messengers that encourage you to speak your truth and show your true colors.

Painted on canvas and set in a quality, deep wooden frame Cockatoo is ready to hang and add some joy to your wall.

Artist Bio

Welcome! I enjoy painting a diverse range of art at my Blue Mountains Studio and Gallery drawing inspiration from the stunning surroundings and its abundance of flora and fauna. My aim is to inspire and bring joy, taking the ordinary and enhancing detail, light and form.

My animals are expressive and quirky at times and my landscapes evoke a sense of tranquility. With delicate, layered brushwork they lend a sense of vitality and depth.

Beginning my art journey in 2008 I started with fantasy watercolors that soon became a channel for expressing my emotions, leaning towards light in the darkness. I quickly became a prolific painter experimenting with different mediums and painting a variety of art, and it felt like I had finally met my inner, creative spirit. My dream of owning my own studio/gallery became a reality in 2012 and to this day I still enjoy meeting and selling to many art lovers.

I participate in a range of group exhibitions, when I can, and have held a variety of successful solo shows. I'm very honored to have gained a number of awards over the years, winning the prestigious Rose Lindsay Art Prize at Blue Mountains Art Fest and won First Prize at BMCAN's NSW Parliament House Exhibition for 'Winter in the Blue Mountains', along with People Choice Awards and Highly Commended. I'm delighted that many of my paintings continue to be held in private and public collections worldwide, along with commissioned art products.

Thank you so much for taking the time to view my art.

With my very best wishes

Linda
