Bird Park

Acrylic painting by William Halle depicting a Bird Park.

The painting depicts a colourful scene with a person seated on a bench in an outdoor setting. The figure wears glasses and faces the right side of the canvas, as if observing something beyond view. In front of them stands a large bird, possibly a marabou stork. Two herons stand next to the person and smaller groups of birds, mostly white, appear in deferent areas of the painting. Two small birds in the centre of the painting—one yellow and one orange—add vibrant splashes of colour. The background features green foliage, trees and a type of enclosure, with hints of blue and purple. The brushwork is loose and expressive, evoking an impressionistic feel.
