Additional Information

Black Cockatoo is a medium sized work in portrait format, painted in acrylic on deep sided stretched cotton duck. The painting features the Black Cockatoo on a branch. This work is unframed, with raw, clean canvas sides, but is ready to hang on deep sided canvas.The colours feature dramatic glossy darks with red and yellow as the natural colour of the cockatoo against a cool pale olive/apple green and cream background, with warm ochre depicting the tree behind.

The inspiration for this painting came from my love of Australian native fauna, particularly our native birds. Painting our native birds is my way of supporting biodiversity and encouraging an appreciation of our natural environment and our native birds. I love the painting the environment, particularly the central west of NSW where I live and Black Cockatoos are extra special.
