wood pigeon

In series of British birds, I've taken coffee stained and energetic emotive splashwork to create a strong composition of our common British bird life.

This is a framed piece. Feel free to ask more question.

ps. here's some blurb from the RSPB website on our favorite wood pigeon :

The UK's largest and commonest pigeon, it is largely grey with a white neck patch and white wing patches, clearly visible in flight. Although shy in the countryside it can be tame and approachable in towns and cities. Its cooing call is a familiar sound in woodlands as is the loud clatter of its wings when it flies away.

Hi ,My name is steffan johnson, I'm from wales, near a place called caerphilly. I love to paint and raw and am in the process of relearning skills and tricks and tips I didn't get taught in art school. Funny as it may seem, techiques and basics wheren't the focus of what I was mostly taught in University, so I've set about trying to relaern and graft at what painters have done for years, and that is to study the art of drawing and painting. Form, shade and light, etc etc are key things I am interested to learn and know, so heres a little selection of work I've done, most of it fairly recent. Hope you enjoy looking at it. I am open for commisions of all sorts - so if you have a still life set up you like or want somebody to paint let us know I'd be happy to paint it. Or anything for that matter - abstract, traditional or contemporary, I'd be well up for giving it a go.

regards,Steff
