Framed size 9" x 21" This is a winter visitor that comes to the UK in large flocks to feed on berries, especially rowan and hawthorn. I love this painting, they look quite exotic with their black eyeliner. I was naturally pleased that these were appreciated so much at the Suffolk Show and Brett Gallery, I was rather sorry to have to part company. It is one of my favourite acrylics and has become a seasonal header for my web site. SOLD
The sight of a Waxwing can brighten up any winter day, no matter how dull the weather. Read more.....BTO Waxwing
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.
