Sometimes it seems our whole house is a large nest box; there is a bird nesting on every side of it. But this year we have a very special guest indeed: the American Kestrel! Years ago a woodpecker carved a nest in one of the wood support beams, about twenty feet high. The year after that a couple of starlings occupied the nest, then a family of squirrels and last year the Wood Ducks used it. And now the American Kestrel, quite a history! Because they are so close I get a front-row seat to their lives. The male kestrel feeds his fiancee at least ten young snakes every day, I have no idea where he finds that many of them! But he has convinced her that he will make a suitable father and so they take their relationship one step further. From my studio I can see exactly what prey he comes home with: mostly small snakes, lizards, a few mice and dragonflies.

Our Gallery Wrapped Canvases are printed with vibrant inks on a premium canvas substrate. The canvas is wrapped around 1-1/2" stretcher bar and finished with a splined back for an elegant look and feel. Showcasing our art in a beautiful full-wrap frameless presentation, each cotton canvas piece is hand stretched over a deep 1-1/2" kiln dried wood stretcher bar. Ready to hang individually or as an ensemble, there's no wonder why this versatile art format is a customer favorite. Reproduced from the original artwork by Marjolein Bastin.
