KATHY BATES “My Friend, The Song Sparrow” Original Oil on Canvas

This original oil on canvas painting by Ohio-based veterinarian and artist Kathy Bates depicts a portrait of a small song sparrow nestled amongst the branches of a tree, blue florals softly illuminated by subtle rays of light that peek through the verdure. Respected for her naturally impressionistic sensibilities, Bates’ quiet, charming scene is made all the more engaging by her usage of soft texture and masterful color choices, inviting a pleasant viewing experience for both artists and collectors alike. This original painting is housed in a sleek sable framing and is signed by the artist in the lower right hand corner of the canvas with additional inscription en verso.

Other artworks by Kathy Bates available, sold separately.
