Description

Horned grebe miniature oil painting. Original artwork on a stretched canvas, created in 2026. The painting depicts a Horned Grebe in its striking breeding plumage, with its characteristic golden ear tufts, dark head and rich chestnut tones.

I wanted to capture the distinctive beauty of this small waterbird, particularly the contrast between its vivid breeding colors and the cool blue of the water surrounding it. The circular format brings the bird into close focus, turning a fleeting moment in nature into an intimate portrait.

Size: 15 cm in diameter

Reference P.Donini.

The artwork is signed and varnished. The painting is ready to hang as it is, without a frame.
