Bright Blue Jay in Pine Tree (2025)Oil painting by Natalia Shaykina

This original oil painting portrays a vivid blue jay perched gracefully among snow-covered pine branches. The moment captured here is both crisp and alive — the bird turns its head, catching a beam of winter light that dances on its striking plumage. The composition is built on contrasts: the textured whiteness of snow, the deep evergreen needles, and the intense blue of the jay’s feathers.

I was inspired by the tension between stillness and alertness in nature. Blue jays are intelligent, vibrant birds, and I wanted to reflect their watchful curiosity as they move through the frosted trees. This painting is a tribute to wild winter mornings, where every sound is amplified and every color becomes more vivid against the cold.
