Hummingbird on Cork

In this piece, I aimed to capture the delicate beauty of a moment in nature with a vibrant hummingbird as the focal point.

Painted on cork, the scene showcases a tiny hummingbird perched attentively on a slender branch, its vivid green head and iridescent pink throat gleaming in the soft light. The bird’s fluffy white underbelly adds a touch of softness to its appearance.

Above, a striking red hibiscus flower with lush green leaves provides a vivid contrast, drawing the viewer’s eye upwards along with the bird’s gaze. The background is a muted blend of greens, allowing the bird and flower to stand out prominently.

The intricate details of the bird’s feathers and the rich texture of the flower petals aim to evoke a sense of tranquility and wonder, capturing a fleeting, yet enchanting moment in the natural world. The use of cork as the canvas adds a unique texture, enhancing the organic feel of the artwork.
