The appearance of the White-crowned Sparrow (Zonotrichia leucophrys) personifies, for me, the word “elegant”. Muted tones of silvery-grey, tan, brown and rust are offset by sharply crisp black and white and a coral-pink beak. They seem always to maintain a slender trimness that I’ve sought to capture in this life-size oil painting of a migrating male as I see them here in southern Ontario, each spring, often amid the early-blooming wildflowers of late April, and early May, such as the trillium (Trillium grandiflorum), Ontario’s provincial flower and prominently featured in the painting. The scene was inspired by seeing just such a sight earl in May at Point Pelee National Park, Ontario, as well as in the woods behind my back fence.
Renowned Canadian bird artist, writer, naturalist, and conservationist, Barry Kent MacKay has “always been an admirer of birds, anxious to see them, paint them, and care for them.” Barry’s biological and ecological accuracy has put him in demand for commissions, to illustrate books, scientific journals and various print and digital media.

I'm delighted that a print of this sold; it's a favourite of mine. I don't make up prints myself, so it pleases me that FAA makes it possible for images of what i do to be seen by more folks. When I was a kid, besotted with the art of earlier bird artists like Brooks, Weber, Fuertes, Eckleberry and so on, it seemed the only medium to use for the small birds was gouache watercolour, but when I carefully examined oil paintings in galleries in Europe, especially the National Gallery in London, I thought oils were also possible, and now I often do use them for smaller birds, like the lovely White-crowned Sparrow (who visits my garden every spring and fail).

This painting was done after I saw a lovely adult White-crowned Sparrow perched amid trilliums at Point Pelee National Park, in southern Ontario, in early May.
