All of these are new oil paintings on canvas board, framed and available. I painted them all at 5″ x 7″, the frame makes the outside edge 8″ x 10″. All are $95 each, shipping included, which is a bit cheaper than what it says on Etsy. Live in Port Townsend or the Quimper Peninsula, I can deliver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few months ago I painted similar offerings as these, now mostly sold, and tended to focus on entire stories with little birds involved. They were more like the chickadee painting, above, with the bird a center of interest in an entire ecosystem. These new paintings are more focused on the bird itself, as if the viewer were eyeball-to-eyeball with a little ball of fluff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fun for me to have enough information to understand how the eye sits in relation to the bill and head shape. If you’d like to learn more, or want any of these, just drop me an email at larryeifert@gmail.com<\/mark><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
