This painting was done in year 2007. It is a copy of the work of my most admired 19th century artist William Bouguereau. It is an oil painting, size approx 38 x 48 inch
My recent work, done in May 2009. Watercolour on W&N paper. This is a Red-breasted Nuthatch. The name Nuthatch comes from the British term 'hatch' meaning to hammer something apart.) Nuthatches will often take a nut, wedge it into a nook in the bark of the tree to help hold it in place and then 'hatch' it into pieces to eat. A very interesting bird to watch.
