Pastels
Kookaburras are the unique and much-loved sound of the Australian bush. Despite being “boofy- headed”, they are still considered very handsome birds with an intelligent eye. They have a strong beak and a compact body covered in a beautiful array of whites, browns, and blacks. Who wouldn’t love them? This female was captured in the failing light just outside Lismore, northern NSW, presumably contemplating her next meal. Her peaceful demeanor lent itself to a serene portrait using dramatic lighting for highlighting purposes.
Size: 76 × 63 cm

About Angela Parr
Angela has been drawing and painting forever but a few years ago switched to pastels. Pastels suit her style and subject matter; however, she still picks up a brush from time to time. Her great passion is wildlife, specifically African and Australian birds and mammals, and she often depict species in desperate need of recognition and conservation.
She lives in the Bundjalung area of NSW, where human encroachment and feral invasion is taking huge tolls on the local wildlife. She hopes her artworks assist in the preservation of our native species, through awareness and donations to local wildlife charities.
