Long-tailed Tit - Sold hornbeam This is an oil painting

This is an oil painting on a 6x6 inch board

16 x 16″ commissioned painting

I imagine the other bird is taking a well earned rest

These glorious roses were in a blue bottle and standing in the window with the light streaming past them throwing shadows on the white wall behind them

Salt had to play Freddie Mercury

Long-tailed Tit - Sold hornbeam This is an oil paintingLong tailed tits have to be the cutest birds, tiny little things except for their long tails. We have a flock of them around here. They regularly come to the feeders and I know they're breeding here in Central London. I saw a flock of fledglings following their parents from tree to tree just outside the house only yesterday. What a wonderful sight.
