Description
Presented in a beautiful deluxe black frame, this original blackbird painting will look stunning in any home. ย This cheeky and friendly little garden bird is a familiar sight on our fences, patios and bird tables across the UK and Ireland.
As a rare monochrome painting, this original piece by Kathryn is perfect for anyone who loves garden birds and something a little different. ย Resisting the urge to add layers of colour, Kathryn has made Blackberry in one single layer of black inky gel. ย The result it truly striking and is evocative of the blackbird’s lovely song.
What makes an original Blackbird painting by Kathryn unique?
Kathryn uses a unique pouring technique to create her paintings, which is a contact-free approach to making her artwork. ย Black ink is mixed with gel to create a new material which offers a new and unusual finish. ย The mix is poured from mid-air from an open neck bottle – much like pouring honey onto toast or olive oil onto bread. ย The finish is a textured, glossy image set against a smooth white board.
With no sketch underneath the painting, this freeform technique allows Kathryn to create truly original, organic pieces that are full of life and energy. ย The result is captivating and often evocative of how we feel about the subject in our minds. ย It is this ‘feeling’ that Kathryn strives to achieve through her work that gives it such resonance with collectors far and wide.
This painting has been created on acid-free primed board and finished with two coats of varnish so there is no need for glass.
