"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.
