Very nicely done Sarah 🙂

What a beauty!!!

Beautiful.

I like the way you have painted the bird Sarah.

Thanks very much for your comments Tanja, Stephen, John, David, Heather, Denise and David - they are very much appreciated .

They are a beautiful bird, so delicate in their appearance. It’s a super painting Sarah, I love the face especially. I remember seeing great flocks of these birds flying with green plover over the ploughed fields were I grew up.

How lovely Fiona, look out for a matching painting I did of a Lapwing at the same time I did this - I'll post it soon. I actually think I have probably seen Golden Plovers in their winter plumage more often than when they look like this (I've only seen them in spring/summer Cumbria), but I'm never quite sure what I'm looking at with many wading birds in winter!! Thank you for your comment, glad you like it.

Absolutely beautiful Sarah

Thank you very much Rachel - much appreciated as always!

A stunning piece with lovely brushwork.

Thank you very much Seok - really appreciate that!

This is a really lovely painting of the bird. Great details and colours Sarah.

Lovely painting Sarah of this Golden Plover bird, such well defined markings on side features and speckled wings, lovely!

Thank you very much Spencer, Angela and Romila, much appreciated.

Another painting I did when studying Biology in the nineties. One of my favourite birds, though have only seen them a few times in my life. Acrylic on card.
