Framed size 9" x 21", with non reflective glass.  After my first avocet original sold quite quickly, with prints appealing too, I was keen to paint another, this time seeing these strikingly attractive waders closer.  

There is quite a story behind these birds, the emblem of the RSPB, as they symbolise the bird protection movement.  Its return in the 1940s and subsequent increase in numbers represents one of the most successful conservation and protection projects in the UK.  Happily, the Victorian hunters and egg-collectors, who drove the avocet to national extinction in the nineteenth century, are now a distant memory.  Read more......RSPB Avocets

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.
