Grey Crowned Crane original oil painting

Original price was: R10000,00.Current price is: R8500,00.

The Grey Crowned Crane is definitely one of my favorites. Among all bird species, these majestic creatures are simply stunning to observe. During a recent trip to the coast in Natal, I was incredibly fortunate to see a few of them, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. Their beauty left such a lasting impression on me that I decided to paint one.

Capturing this bird was quite challenging and took over 40 hours to complete. The original oil painting measures 76 cm by 54 cm, created on stretched canvas. It’s ready to hang, but it would also look spectacular framed. Bring some vibrancy to your walls with a piece that almost seems to leap off the canvas.

As an artist committed to conservation, a portion of each sale will be donated to endangered bird conservation efforts.
