Splendid Wren Pillows

A watercolour painting of a pair of Australian native Splendid wrens amidst Blue Leschenaultia flowers.

The beautiful Australian Splendid Blue Wren is found particularly in the southern parts of Western Australia. The male bird develops gorgeous blue colouring to attract the female.

Splendid fairy wren design perfect for Australian bird fans. Makes a great gift for birders, bird watchers, twitchers, ornithologists, bird nerds and lovers of Aussie wildlife who like cute native birds. Show some love for the iconic blue Malurus splendens!

I combined my digital version of Masquerade, Western Australia's new blue Kangaroo Paw, with a little Australian Blue Wren.

Photographed at Bremer Bay on one of my photography tours, this was my first proper sighting of a male Splendid Fairy Wren - and he posed beautifully!

A beautiful Australian Blue Wren is the central image in this pretty mandala. I painted the original of this one in gouache (opaque watercolour) on paper, then edited it digitally.

The Australian 'Masquerade' blue Kangaroo Paw exists only in Western Australia. It was bred here over the past decade, for colour and tardiness, to be grown in people's gardens. Here in my digital painting, a little blue Wren perches on the Kangaroo Paw stem.
