In this painting of Australian Shelducks I have attempted to give an ‘old world’ look by adopting the chiaroscuro style of the old masters. It is a portarit of a male and a female and was inspired by being able to sit quite close to a pair in Kings Park in Perth WA where I could study the beauty of their plumage.
