NOT QUITE HIDDEN by Cathy McIntire, 8x8" Goldfinch painting

Not Quite Hidden by artist Cathy McIntire

Every year, during the winter months of January and February, I get Goldfinches at my house. In order to encourage them to visit, my husband puts our Christmas tree on the deck and we attach bird feeders to it.

Last year I got lots of great photos of these birds, so I can paint them doing their natural thing. This particular painting is on a linen panel and I like the firm support of the panel.

"Young Goldfinch" by Astrid Paustian

Oil on archival board, 7" x 5", $125.-
One of the juvenile Goldfinches that are visiting our yard with their parents to feast on the sunflowers. I love to watch the fun as the little Goldfinches learn to balance on the flowers and feed themselves. I am fascinated with the delicate colors of their plumage, sometimes having to guess if they are male or female.

The Five Graces

"American Goldfinch" by Astrid Paustian

Oil on archival board, 7" x 5", $125.-
The Goldfinches have returned to our yard for their annual feast on our red sunflowers.
I was lucky enough to get a photo of this little guy yesterday morning, and had to paint him right away. I do enjoy watching these beautiful birds as they perform their acrobatics, swaying on top of the heavy sunflower blossoms to extract the seeds. It takes the young goldfinches a few days to learn this skill, under loud protest, since it is so much easier to be fed by their parents.

"Goldfinch and Sunflower" by Astrid Paustian

Oil on gallery wrapped canvas, 8" x 8", $275.-
Painting continues around the 2" deep edges.
We had a large flock of Goldfinches in our yard late last summer. The birds were feasting on the sunflowers that came up in the garden and the adults were teaching the young finches how to extract the seeds while swaying on top of the large flowers.
It was a wonderful opportunity to watch and photograph these colorful birds.
