This oil painting (30" x 40") is of a snow petrel at the Antarctic peninsula, at 0445hrs, just as the early rays of the sun, shining through from under heavy cloud cover, clip the face of a glacier. The sea appeared almost black due to the dark clouds above and the contrast with the sunlit ice.
The painting will be on show at the British Birdwatching Fair, Rutland Water, 19th - 21st August. SOLD
