Framed size 9" x 25", with non reflective glass. House sparrows are one of my favourite birds to paint, so this was especially enjoyable. My sister commissioned and named this piece. She wanted a long picture to hang over her bed. It has generated so much interest that I have now painted this second design, adding the the title to the mount. SOLD at the Tendring Show. This painting sold out of its limited edition 25 print run.
House sparrows can be found from the centre of cities to the farmland of the countryside, they feed and breed near people. Read more......RSPB House Sparrow
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.
