Downy Woodpecker on Birch
Downy is an original oil painting on birch bark of a downy woodpecker on real birch bark. This art piece comes framed with a matte. I saw this lovely little wood pecker on a walk one day.
Frame dimensions 14x 17”
This is one painting in a series inspired by the story of a birch tree. The birch bark inspired the series but, also became an important part of the art itself. As I began painting on these original birch bark pieces I began imagining the life and stories that this beautiful old tree could tell. Wild life began to emerge as I worked on this bark. I could imagine this blue jay and his friends visiting this beautiful big old tree.
The beauty of this rustic piece is it’s many natural imperfections from painting on an original piece of birch bark. Each piece is original of bark has rough edges, woodpecker holes and many other natural imperfections. This piece of birch bark comes from a tree that was taken down by a storm.
The painting has been varnished and should remain in the frame to reduce wear and tear on the birch trees delicate bark.
