Kiwi Bird Portrait Painting


"Look"
1500x1500mm
Oil on Linen
2003


Description.
The image is a large format oil painting of the rare New Zealand Great Spotted Kiwi which is endemic to the South Island of New Zealand. The image was sourced from a colour negative due to the  night vision effect it implied for me. Kiwi's are nocturnal birds.
