Description
A charming small oil painting capturing the curious character of a Green Catbird, affectionately titled “Kitty.” Painted with rich, expressive brushwork, this little portrait celebrates the distinctive green plumage and endearing personality of one of Australia’s most intriguing native birds.
Green Catbirds are named for their unusual call, which can sound remarkably like the mewing or wailing of a cat. Their haunting, cat-like calls echo through the rainforest canopy, giving these beautiful birds their wonderfully memorable name.
Thank you to photographer Roger Fance for graciously providing the reference photo used to create this commissioned oil painting.
