Waiting for Sundown

 

Here is a pair of male White Browed Tit Warblers waiting for the sun to go down while sitting pretty on Mulla Mulla wildflowers. These small, unicorn colored birds are found in boreal forests of Asia and apart from that silly name, everything else about this rainbow bird is absolutely perfect, including but not limited to those elegantly shaped white eyebrows!

 

This is an original mixed media painting on mauve 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"x8". 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 a double coat of espresso water based 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.

PS: The last video is to show the process of making the artwork
