About The Work
This watercolor painting by Thomas Broadbent is composed of stacked books to create a "birdhouse" from an architecture of printed matter and rubber bands. The title "Shore House" relates to the type of birds depicted in the painting, with a sea gull and sandpipers perched on the structure. One sandpiper stands on one leg as a familiar stance known for this variety of birds. The bright color in the book's binding add a nice vibrancy to the highly detailed painting. Red and green compliment the neutral grey and browns in the bird's marking and feathers. This painting is created in a contemporary naturalist style with the artist giving great care into his depiction of the anatomy and structure of the birds.
