An artwork inspired by a love of music with a quirky fun take of mastering the world around you. The gramophone is the sound of the world, the reality we hear. The wren sees this from a position of balance with the symbolic power of the past in royal representation on the gramophone front. This coconut charcoal and acrylic painting on fine art rolled canvas is an expression of life through thought, emotion with fine art realism, expressionism and abstract styles. Coconut charcoal powder provides the representational structure for the gramophone and wrens, using a unique and also made up technique with paint brushes.

A strong mix of acrylic colours are splashed for an expressive effect for both movement and emotion in what is referred to as a unique creation in ‘Motusrealism’. A mix of diamond sparkle acrylic medium was splashed with an effect of different colour at various angles of light. Oil paint throughout for highlights and extra realism.
