2.5m x 85cm, Acrylic on canvas
CARMINE BEE EATER #1
This is the first painting in a series of 3 Carmine Bee Eaters. The format of this commission was measured to suit a specific wall in my clients Fresnaye apartment. A muted, single colour sky see the birds' vibrant colours popping off the canvas. The weight of the birds balance each other with the two being as heavy as the one. Dynamic angles compliment each other and keeps your eye comfortably drfifting back and forth along this lengthy canvas. This commission was a wonderful introduction to this bird and saw 3 painting materialise from the request.
