Artwork Description

Poured as a water scene, the piece sat without bird for many months as I dropped fish and rocks into the scene. Originally there was to be a fisherman's boat floating in the bay, but no matter how I visualized it, the composition didn't seem right.

I decided to add a bird from above to try to give depth to the piece, but it was another month before I was feeling brave enough to start working on the bird stencil, as feathers are intimidating to paint.

A paper drawing was made, and then snipped out to be used as a spray-paint stencil in white, over which paint pens and acrylics were layered on to create feathering and shadow

Artist Bio

West Australian artist that likes to paint canvases, but is not adverse to creating pieces in many mediums.

I'm hoping to make a name for myself and eventually make a living selling my art. I hope that you find something that speaks to you.

I have a hard time organising myself. I've bought a lot of canvases, and don't keep all of them in the house with me, so some of the canvas sizes are a bit of an 'educated guess', but I'm happy to confirm any sizes before sale. (If this website facilitates a way for you to contact me?)
