About this Product
The Cape Sparrow is a charming little bird, often seen flitting around human settlements in southern Africa. With its sociable nature and distinct markings, it’s a familiar sight that always brings a touch of joy to its surroundings.
In this painting, the sparrow strikes a pose, turning its head as if to show off its best side. Its bright, alert eyes and the slight tilt of its head suggest a moment of quiet confidence. The soft, muted background and delicate green leaves surrounding it highlight the sparrow’s simplicity and beauty.
This 6x6-inch acrylic painting is done on 3/8" Ampersand hardboard and varnished for long-lasting protection. There is a hanging notch in the back, so It can be displayed easily on a wall with or without a frame. Whether you're a bird lover or simply appreciate the beauty of nature, this painting will bring a sense of calm and warmth to any room.

How it’s Made
I started out by tinting the hardboard with a warm neutral color. Then I loosely sketched the bird with a thin brush. I blocked in most of the basic shapes, then made another layer with thicker paint, using large, loose strokes wherever possible.
