Taiga Gyrfalcon
Location in the view: Fourth Column, top
Description : Largest falcons in the world, Gyrfalcons are known for their large size and speed. They have a variety of colors of plumage ranging from white to almost black. Choosing to show off these characteristics, I decided to paint one with white plumage and mottled gray spots sitting on a borrowed tree nest.
Materials : This is an original mixed media painting on Pastel Violet colored handmade paper, with gouache, embroidery threads and beads . The size of the painting is approximately 5" x 7" and is mounted in a float frame. The overall size of the frame is approximately 6"x 8". It comes varnished with 2 coats of Krylon Kamar spray varnish to ensure protection from sunlight over time.
The frame is handmade in my home studio from pinewood and has been painted the same shade of Pink in gouache paint with couple layers of Krylon spray varnish and two layer of Liquitex Matte varnish. It comes in two parts that are attached with screws on the back. If ever need be, the painting can be detached from the outer frame by removing the said screws.
Artist's signature with the date on the side and back of the frame.
