Mini original painting of Britains most prevelant garden bird - The Wren. 
 
Piece title: "Early bird catches the worm"
 
At dawn, before the rest of the world has fully woken, the wren is already up, singing with everything it has. This painting captures the wren as I see it…bold & full of life. The boldness reflected in the bright contemporary pink and gold background, like dawn itself.
 
Wrens seem to lack an ‘off’ button! They are always on the move, bubbly, inquisitive and full of energy, always busy and determined. But what the wren lacks in stature, it more than makes up for with its voice; a voice so loud and full of character that it demands to be heard.
 
I adore the fact that male and female wrens are almost identical, another reminder that strength and impact aren’t defined by appearance or gender. And then there’s their distinctive silhouette, the way they hold their tails high as if brimming with confidence.
 
The wren is considered a symbol of resilience, creativity and persistence and I can see why…It may be small, but like all wrens, they carry a voice that will not be ignored.
