This is "Daisy" the Curlew. Daisy has been hand-painted in acrylic paint on a beautiful piece of reclaimed timber which used to form part of Bournemouth's Sea Defence. This piece of reclaimed wood not only has some history to it but it also has some beautiful and very original markings on it as a result of years of weathering by the Dorset coast.
This original Curlew Painting measures 25.3cm (w) x 12.3cm (h) x 1.2cm (d). It comes complete with a saw-tooth picture hanger ready to hang on your wall. Daisy would look beautiful in a kitchen, lounge, bedroom, hallway or conservatory and would make a lovely, unique gift for a bird/nature-loving friend or family member.
I only paint wildlife on wood as I love using wood as a natural and sustainable background to my artwork. Much of the wood that I work with is reclaimed and therefore has some beautiful markings and character that deserve to be preserved and celebrated. This is a one-off piece of coastal bird art and having been coated in a flat matt varnish for protection, it should stand the test of time and can be treasured for a life-time.
