All in a row! (Oystercatchers) SOLD

Description

Mixed media artwork depicting The Oystercatcher a very noisy wading bird with a loud ‘peep-ing’ call living mainly in and around the shoreline. It specialises in eating shellfish, particularly cockles and mussels, which it either prises or hammers open with its strong, flattened bill. They are comical little birds with lots of character and can be found on many of the beaches of the Scottish Hebrides. This mixed media piece uses my collage and paint techniques with paper, acrylic paint and gold leaf creating a rich textural surface.
