European Starlings are now among North America’s most numerous songbirds. They are known to be covered in white spots during winter, but interestingly take on a glossy dark plumage in summer. This starling is taking shelter in some fresh spring buds, and its speckled winter feathers are slowly but surely transitioning to those of summer, an inky cerulean blue-black.

Jeff Dillon the Canadian Artist, inspired by the bold colours and brush strokes of Post-Impressionist Artists. His unique style focuses on capturing light, not through the detail of realism, but with gesture, illusion, shape and colour. He offers a personal and distinctive style to the world through his bold use of colours and lines, often symbolic images or subject matter. Objects in the paintings retain their realistic appearance yet have a vibrancy and fluidity about them, unique to his work. Jeff Dillon’s new expression of Post-Impressionism is both beloved and revered in the Canadian and Global Contemporary Art World.
