Portrait of a Lady—Red-Tailed Hawk (10″ x 8″)

This original oil painting depicts a red-tailed hawk surveying her surroundings. The keen eye and regal quality of the bird has been captured by the artist with a high degree of detail and an emotive quality that is unmistakable. An abstract background with rays of light finishes off the piece.

This painting was painted by renowned wildlife artist Michael Scott Phillips using traditional painting methods. The work was painted on a linen-wrapped birch panel that provides the ultimate in stability over a long period of time, insuring that the painting will not deform or crack for well over a century if properly displayed or stored in the correct conditions. All of the base materials were hand-crafted by the artist prior to beginning work on the painting. All pigments used are color-fast and will not fade if protected from direct sunlight.

The frame is an elegant dark brown/black with touches of gold that bring out the colors in the painting. The painting itself is 10″ (h) x 8″ (w).
