Caught this with my zoom. Noticed nature intertwined with man made landscape…parallel electricity wires. The fog helped to hide all other elements in the landscape. A few seconds later this fleeting moment was lost as the magpie took flight.

These gorgeous birds live in my backyard… the mother brings her babies to me every year – there are at least two.

Amazingly there are 20 species of Magpie in the world. Not quite sure which I have painted here… looks more like an Australian magpie Many people consider them superstitious, they certainly have their place in folklore, some believe they bring good luck, others believe bad. I remember being played Rossini’s Thriving Magpie when I was quite young; it is said they have a panache for shiny, silvery things which they like to steal and hide. / Here the magpie has found a key! I wonder where it came from? I see him as a ‘Keeper of Secrets’. / The selected text comes from a traditional rhyme I was told as a child: One for sorrow, Two for joy, / Three for a girl, Four for a boy, / Five for Silver, Six for Gold / Seven for a secret never to be told This is an acrylic painting on canvas.

Acrylic on canvas / “Australian Magpies on red background” This work just seems to have the right elements of black red and white that almost everyone that sees it just loves it. / It wasn’t that important a painting to me (although i liked it and was happy with it) but once EVERYONE wanted one it kind of became my signature piece! / I liked that the magpies even though they are almost 2D in shape still held you captivated with their real looking eyes, the red background is brilliant and bright and the whole combination works a treat. / Magpies are cheeky creatures and such an everyday Australian sight that i think that has an appeal as well. / I think I’ve done ..god about 12 different magpies now and i’m totally over them and i dont care how popular they are NO MORE… so enjoy these…. they are the original and best!

Anyone who has been swooped by crows will know the feeling. It took along time to get crisp linework but I am happy with the image in the end.

Turning and turning in the widening gyre, / the falcon cannot hear the falconer; / things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; / mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, / the blood-dimmed tide is loosed; and everywhere / the ceremony of innocence is drowned (W. B. Yeats)

"Ah, my friend, you do not know, you do not know / What life is, you who hold it in your hands"; / (Slowly twisting the lilac stalks) / "You let it flow from you, you let it flow, / And youth is cruel, and has no remorse / And smiles at situations which it cannot see." / I smile, of course, / And go on drinking tea. (T.S. Eliot)

The listless sun deceived our farewell, / boats were leaving like flies, / birds puckered up like toothless mouths / and fell stiff and dead from the heavens. When I was alone under the yellow sky / where my eyes were ripping up rags, / I turned out my pockets / in the hope of finding an exile companion. There was nothing in them / nothing but dust from the roads, / nothing but roads of misery, / nothing but dead queens nailed to wooden beams. (René Daumal)

Dénouement to dénouement, he took a personal pride in / the certain, certain way he lived his own, private life, / but nevertheless, they shut off his gas; nevertheless, the / bank foreclosed; nevertheless, the landlord called; / nevertheless, the radio broke, And twelve o’clock arrived just once too often, / just the same he wore one grey tweed suit, bought one / straw hat, drank one straight Scotch, walked one / short step, took one long look, drew one deep breath, / just one too many. (poem by Kenneth Fearing, texture by playingwithbrushes)

I had an image of you: a bird / between continent and continent / with foreign songs in your head / through lightning, rainbow, cloud beating down the northern stars / forgotten lights on cruel waters / through snow, wind, darkness, rain, / with your one possession: song And I saw you once in a strange dream / where I walked through intricate gates of iron / and asked you to translate / Gruppe aus dem Tartarus (Gwen Harwood)

Parrots, also known as psittacines are birds of the roughly 372 species found in most warm and tropical regions. The order is subdivded in three families: the Psittacidae (true parrots), the Cacatuidae (cockatoos) and the Nestoridae. Parrots have a pan-tropical distribution with several species inhabiting the temperate Southern Hemisphere as well. The greatest diversity of parrots is found in South America and Australasia. Parrots, along with crows, jays and magpies, are some of the most intelligent birds, and their ability to imitate human voices enhances their popularity as pets. Trapping of wild parrots for the pet trade, as well as other hunting, habitat loss and competition from invasive species, have diminished wild populations, and more parrots are threatened with extinction than any other group of birds. “Parrot Portrait ….... ” was featured in I Love Birds
