Golden Eagle Art Gallery is pleased to offer an extensive collection of world-renowned artworks by Canadian wildlife artist, Robert Bateman. World-travelled and well versed, Bateman always tells a great story about each of his creations. Here is what he has to say about this piece:
"I lived for twenty years in the rural countryside of Ontario. I delighted in the gothic revival Victorian homes. Someimes their page wire fences were embellished with little cast iron maple leaves. The blue jay fits perfectly into that landscape. He's not concerned with heritage or national symbol. He is fluffed with the cold and probably wondering if a nearby bird feeder will have a supply of sunflower seeds."
