Welcome to The Art of Nature

My subject matter is mainly wildlife. Occasionally I will also paint western/native american pieces. I work in oils. It is my intention with this blog to keep viewers updated on new pieces, post examples of my inspiration and occasionally show a new painting from start to finish! Just a reminder...All paintings, photographs of paintings and photographed images are protected by copyright. - Kathryn Ashcroft

The first Pintail is almost finished, I don't want a lot of detail in this bird because it will be pushed back a bit. The main focus will be on the bigger bird.
Pintails are beautiful birds, they have stenciling on many of their feathers which will be a challenge to paint. I love the iridescent coloring on their head. I look forward to moving on to the bigger duck!
