“This piece has a rich history of layers. It was started in the Spring and began as a colourful mix of collage to which one large bird was added. Layers were added and eventually the bird became a garden of flowers and after living with the painting for a while I decided that the garden was lacking something. A new bird was painted and soon another joined this little birdie and the picture suddenly came to life. I can hear the chirping conversation between the two birds and feel the warmth of the Summer days as I look at this.”
