Framed size 21" x 9", with non reflective glass. My client commissioned the bearded tits after buying one of my other paintings from Brett Gallery, Monks Eleigh. Before painting, I sketched the bird out for approval in their traditional setting of reed beds.
The Bearded Tit is a Schedule 1 species. It is brown, long-tailed, usually seen flying rapidly across the top of a reed bed. Males have black 'moustaches' rather than 'beards'. They are sociable and noisy, their 'ping' calls often being the first clue to their presence. Read more.....RSPB Bearded Tit
The painting is on Cold Press, extra heavy, off white Crescent art board and I aim to produce the finest detail in both the subject and its natural setting. The shade of the Daler mountboard is carefully selected depending on the painting, as is the toning of the frame itself.
