Lucy the Lorikeet

In the summer I visited Longleat Safari Park and had an absolutely brilliant time – I cannot recommend it highly enough.  One of my many highlights was feeding the rainbow lorikeets nectar pots.  We walked into the enclosure, pots in hand and were swept away with delight when the beautiful lorikeets chose to fly onto our hands and drink up the nectar.  They are stunning and also very sociable with mesmerising and quirky antics.   One particular lorikeet seemed to be talking to us and I have painted her here and decided that I think she (I think?) is a Lucy.  Inspired by their rainbow colours and the liquid nectar I have created a collection of three lorikeets on a dribble paintings.

This is a Giclée print on Hahnemüle German Etching paper which has a wonderful rich texture and heavyweight feel and allows the print to look very close to the original.

Printed at  theprintspace.com  which is a 100% end-to-end carbon neutral service.

Printed with a wide white border, the image is designed to neatly fit into an A4 off-the-shelf frame. This makes framing very simple and affordable.

Your print will arrive in a protective paper sleeve, enclosed in a cardboard envelope.
