The Kingfisher is one of the most unique birds that is instantly recognisable.
A flash of intense turquoise-cobalt blue and deep orange strike a remarkable impression for a remarkable river bird.
Painted to create a interplay of contrasting muted blue/oranges of the bird in the background and introducing movement this painting reflects the clam pose of the Kingfisher yet the energy of its lightening fast reflexes and flight.
20.5 x 16.5 x 1.75 inches Framed dimensions.
16 x 12 actual artwork dimensions.
Framed and ready to hang.
Painted on fine textured oil paper, the subtle texture of the surface enhances the depth and character of the brushwork, adding a tactile quality that complements the delicate detail of the bird's plumage. The softly blended background ensures the Kingfisher remains the clear focal point, allowing its warm oranges, cool blues and earthy tones to stand beautifully against the gentle backdrop.
Steffan Johnson's classical training in Florence and London is evident in the careful observation and tonal control throughout — a work that rewards close looking as much as it brightens a room from across it.
