This piece captures one of my favourite sights at my local park, the flash of a nuthatch darting out from behind the bird feeder tree.
I remember watching them with such delight, these quick, clever little birds always ducking and diving, never sitting still long enough to get a clear photo!
Their colours fascinated me every time – that soft, warm blend of blues and rusty tones, like a quiet little burst of the natural world. Painting this nuthatch felt like freezing a fleeting moment, offering a closer look at a bird that rarely stays still.
I hope it brings you a little of that joy and playfulness that nuthatches bring to the trees.
