Artwork Description

Original Artwork: this piece took over 2 weeks to complete, using Pigma Micron Archival Inks and Winsor & Newton watercolours on white Fabriano Artistico Smooth Paper.

Utilising the ink techniques of cross hatching, line work, and stippling ‘CREST’ captures a black cockatoo. Cockatoos and cockatiels possess crests which may be raised or lowered at will. Their crests are used to communicate with fellow members of their species, or as a form of defense to frighten away other species that approach too closely, making the bird appear larger when the crest is suddenly and unexpectedly raised.

Artist Bio

An intriguing artist of the 21st century, wife, loving mother, entrepreneur, book-illustrator and realistic sketcher/painter, Rebekah strives to take you on a visual journey that will leave you in awe.

Rebekah Ziola (Bekymaree), is known for creating captivating and innovative art. Insanely passionate about art and design, Rebekah completed her Bachelor of Science in Design on full scholarship at The Ohio State University in 2007. As a Pearl Business Supporter of the The Australian Marine Conservation Society: Rebekah's artworks have also raised funds towards preserving our precious marine wildlife for multiple years. And, in 2020, one artwork piece in particular raised closed to $1000 for Wires Wildlife Rescue.

Rebekah Ziola captures her subjects in "realistic" pencil, ink and watercolour – that are all too mesmerising, hypnotic and spellbinding. Her distinct custom portraits, and alternate subjects are original and iconic. Adding her special taste in every image, Bek produces realistic sketches and paintings in varied scales that have also been recognised internationally:

"Look at this gorgeous drawing Bekymaree is working on of our chicken, how precious"
Whitney Eve Port

"Your work is beautiful"
Kerrie Hess

She transforms her ideas into beautiful art pieces, which, at a first glance might look like richly-coloured paintings or photographs, but on closer observation, you will find yourself immersed in her art. With colour, vibrancy, subtle motion and details, her sketches and paintings are alive, figuratively and literally.

Rebekah Ziola takes an innovative approach to art which sets her apart; mostly sketching upside down and with an array of different materials to perfect her final pieces; always striving to achieve a higher level of technical ability. Rebekah has dedicated her life to sketching and painting and brings beauty to life by portraying it on the canvas/paper.
