Acrylic on canvas, stretched and ready to hang.

Signed on the front.

I was at the local bush reserve recently and this peacock just wandered into the sunlight. The way the light hit his tail feathers brought out the most amazing colours.
At over a metre wide, this is a substantial piece. I used such a large canvas so that it would be the centre of attention, just as the subject so obviously wanted to be.
Metallic blue, gold, silver and copper paint has been used to capture the iridescence of the feathers. This makes the colours shimmer and change as you walk past the painting. For that reason I would recommend hanging it in a large, well lit position that can be seen from a number of angles.
