Title: "Gouldian Finch in Clover " ARTIST'S STATEMENT Australian backyards are hosts to many amazing native and introduced bird species. I am lucky enough to have a few natives that frequent my yard and neighbourhood. This image is from a series of paintings which explores species observed at or near my home in the Hunter Valley on the eastern coast of Australia. Unlike many bird illustrations the characters portrayed in these paintings have been presented within a scene. Adding to the personal nature of the image and to its story telling capabilities, the viewer is invited to become an un-intrusive part of the birds environment. This is a portrait of a Gouldian Finch in flowering clover. The Gouldian Finch, Erythrura gouldiae (or Chloebia gouldiae), also known as the Lady Gouldian Finch or Gould's Finch, is a colourful bird native to northern Australia. Recent years has shown a decline in the numbers of this nomadic wild bird. Unfortunately I live too far south to experience this bird in the wild but it is the second most domesticated Australian finch, which has three naturally occurring colour variations but literally hundreds of domesticated colour variations throughout the world. Perhaps, sadly, I will have to be content to experience it as a domesticated breed.
ORIGINAL ARTIST PRINTS These prints are the artwork's original physical form, NOT reproductions. This art work which was created digitally, through painting by hand with an electronic pen on a digital drawing tablet, directly into a computer. The process of creating an art image digitally restricts the physical presentation of the artwork to printed form. So like wood blocks, etchings, screen printing and photography, it is not possible to have any other physical representation. Each print comes with a signed certificate of Authenticity directly from the artist along with a written artist statement about the image that you are purchasing, a brief artist bio and an information sheet about how to care for and preserve art on paper.
