Welcome to my blog

I have loved painting and art from a very early age , but only taken my art seriously in the last two and half years. I paint in oils and my passion is Australian birds, I spend a lot of time watching birds and their antics and try to put it on canvas. I also paint portraits , and the odd landscape. I studied art for a time in Tony Moffits online art school and improved tremendously as a artist. I paint every day , and try to improve with every painting I do. I only use good quality canvas and oil paints. All paintings on this site are for sale, please feel free to contact me on southern_skies@hotmail.com
Thank you so much for dropping by.

  2. Hi Julie,

    When I see a painting with this bird, it always brings a good memory to me.
    A Kookaburra bird was one of the first works that I did in pastel and one of my first since I started painting.
    Of course that it didn't come out as good as these :-)
    Other birds that I find quite funny are those parrots (I guess they're called parrots) from New Zealand that are really curious and nosy.

    Kind regards,

    José
