Set against dense autumn foliage, this original heavy body acrylic painting by Canadian artist Jeff Dillon focuses on the striking contrast between the cool tones of a blue jay and the warmth of the surrounding forest. The composition balances movement, seasonal colour, and close observation while allowing the bird to remain calm and alert within the landscape.

This stunning blue jay is juxtaposed against crimson autumnal foliage. We often see blue jays on their own, but in many cases they are temporary lone explorers, taking a curious deviation from their flock. Their flocks prefer to travel with the sun in groups ranging from 5 to 50 birds. The next time you see a blue jay hopping about, remember that there are many more nearby, waiting. Spotting a flock of blue jays is a unique sight, and one you won’t forget. The layered autumn background creates depth and warmth throughout the scene while the blue jay stands out sharply against the surrounding foliage.
The accompanying Certificate of Authenticity is also hand-signed and numbered by the artist.
