NAURU NATIVE - Flora and Fauna
Code: re94-07
THE
STORY:
I was commissioned by the Naura Consul General to New Zealand to paint this native flower and a birds nest from 2 photos given to me of the Flora and Fauna from the Republic Island nation.
The challenge was to paint a shallow depth of field and retain the vibrancy of tropical colours. This was in the early days of my voyage into the photo realism discipline with a paint brush. As with Nauru Nest an interesting part in the capture of this image was to retain an honest interpretation of the vibrant Pacific floral colours made stronger by the angle of sunlight falling on the foliage against an out of focus bushy green background.
