This limited edition fine art print by Canadian artist Jeff Dillon captures the iridescent detail and shifting colour of a grackle illuminated by passing light. Reproduced from the original heavy body acrylic painting, the artwork preserves the contrast between the bird’s dark silhouette and the unexpected brilliance revealed within its plumage.

This violet hued grackle is catching the light in such a way that the opal-like colours of its plumage are revealed. In quick passing, these birds often appear a stark black. It is a treat to see their feathers illuminate with these iridescent colours, vividly contrasting their usual shadowy form. The surrounding branch and foliage provide a soft natural contrast that allows the reflective quality of the bird’s feathers to remain the focal point of the composition.
