INSPIRATION
This work celebrates the beaky birds of Nelson's Waimea Inlet. It's a busy day!
The pied shag in the foreground is waiting for the tide to come in, while the pied stilt is happily feeding, and the pied oystercatcher is flying off to join the three in the background.
I adored painting this, capturing the essence of an ordinary day on the Waimea Inlet, with the wildlife, the tides and the light all working in harmony as it does in nature.
