"On the Wire" abstract bird painting by Kate Dardine

Painting #22 of my Painting a Day project. I experimented with this painting- I tried a new ground to paint on - canvas mounted on a panel, which is then mounted on a wooden "frame" which gives it almost a 3/4" profile. The other "new" thing is the perspective; I've been concentrating on close-ups, this one shows birds in the distance.

I see birds sitting on telephone and electric wires all the time, and love the pattern they make silhouetted against the sky.

"On the Wire" is a 4x4" oil on Ampersand panel. Click here for purchase info.
