This oil painting depicts a stunning Major Mitchell bird, with its head tilted to the side, engaging with the viewer. The painting is a beautiful display of vibrant colors, with strong shades of pink, white, and yellow used to portray the bird’s plumage. The Major’s eyes are bright and inquisitive, with a mischievous glint that adds to his cheeky demeanor. This painting captures him in a moment of curiosity, as if he is studying the viewer and trying to figure out what they are up to.
The background of the painting is kept simple, with soft pastel colours that allows the bird to be the focus of the piece. The brushstrokes of the main feature are deliberate, adding texture and depth to the painting.
I have strived to perfectly captured the bird’s personality and engage the viewer in a way that makes the painting truly captivating.
