Bluetits in springtime - oil on board

04) Bluetits in springtime.

Natural history has always been a passion of mine and on occasions I love to paint wild animals not only because they are very beautiful but also to challenge myself to try to capture something of their character, behaviour and animation. One of the best ways to understand nature is to observe it, up close and personal. Drawing and painting is the perfect way to truly engage with animals and to learn from them .
