Artwork description:
Hand coloured woodcut.
One of a series of prints that I have produced on the theme of endangered shorebirds that I see near my home in South Australia.
The Bar tailed Godwit flies every year from South Australia to Siberia and back again. These birds and many other shorebirds like them have lost a large number of feeding grounds to building developments on and around the mudflats along the route, notably in the vicinity of the Yellow Sea between China and the Korean peninsula. Every year their numbers are declining, at an increasingly alarming rate.
Materials used:
Oil based inks on archival Hosho paper, hand coloured with watercolours
