Framed size 21" x 9, with non reflective glass." Despite its name, the Bearded Tit is neither a tit nor does it have a beard! it actually has more of a moustache and was known as the Bearded Reedling, which is much more appropriate. I have done a similar painting before but I wanted it with a fuller background and a couple more birds. SOLD at Brett Gallery, Monks Eleigh
The Bearded Tit is a Schedule 1 species. They are brown, long-tailed birds, usually seen flying rapidly across the top of a reed bed. Read more.....RSPB Bearded Tits
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.
