This gorgeous Australian bird is a called a Galah. She is also known as the Pink and Grey and is one of the most common and widespread Cockatoos in Australia. They can be found in open country in almost all parts of mainland Australia including the busy city suburbs.
I chose to paint her against a background of white gum blossoms and young pink gum leaves through to deep green gumleaves to showcase the beautiful rose pink of her chest.
The original Galah painting was lovingly rendered in watercolours and is a fitting tribute to one of our favourite birds. This Australian native art print will brighten any wall space in your home with the green gumleaves and the rose pinks of the Galah. It could also make a lovely artwork gift to any Aussie living overseas.
Artwork is the easiest and most effective way to update your home in an instant.You will transform your space immediately as well as treat yourself to a beautiful new piece of art for your guests to admire.
The enormous amount of detailing becomes clearer the closer the viewer gets. This watercolour took many hours to paint.
This artwork was hand painted in very fine detail in my art studio on the Central Coast which is one hour north of Sydney, Australia.
PRINTING
Your artwork has been professionally printed with top quality inks on beautiful, heavyweight 210gsm silk card for the A4 and A3 size. The larger A2 and A1 size are printed on 180gsm bond card. The result is a highly detailed image with vibrant colours. It is difficult to tell the difference between the original watercolour and the professional print.
IMPORTANT
The colours on your print may vary slightly to the colours shown on your own computer or phone screen.
All of the A4 and A3 sized prints have an approximate 5mm white border which will be covered by a ready-made picture frame.
If you wish to use a mat around your print I suggest that you use a professional picture framer who will ensure that the custom-made mat will cover the white border on your A4 or A3 sized print.
SHIPPING
All prints are made-to-order and posted securely in a sturdy mailing tube or envelope within 1-2 weeks. Shipping is FREE in Australia, but there is a charge for International orders. A frame is not included with the purchase.
