This female red winged blackbird has chosen a predictable perch on a swaying collection of creekside reeds. This painting captures the hurried focus of this little bird while she was mid hunt, nearly hidden from sight scavenging insects amongst the reeds and branches. The female red winged black bird is often more difficult to spot than their flashy male counterparts. You can identify their small frame with unique pale cream streaks against their ochre brown and titan buff toned feathers.

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.
