Description

This detailed pen and watercolor illustration by Dale Wesselman, dated 8/71, captures two birds in a moment of natural interaction atop a tree branch. The artist’s fine linework and careful use of color — especially the striking yellow and red accents — highlight the birds’ plumage with precision and realism. The composition reflects an appreciation for wildlife art, blending scientific accuracy with artistic expression.

The piece is presented in a 13.5 x 15-inch wood frame with a gold and green double molding that complements the earthy tones of the artwork. Professionally matted and backed, it remains ready to hang. A charming addition for collectors of avian art or mid-century naturalist illustrations.
