"Now You See Me" by Astrid Paustian

Oil on linen panel, 8" x 8",$225.-, framed.
Still watching, photographing and painting the goldfinches during their annual visit and feast in our sunflowers. It is a beautiful and fascinating spectacle as the young goldfinches accompany the adults and gradually learn to feed themselves while swaying on top of the large flowers.

"Young Gold Finch" by Astrid Paustian

Oil on archival board, 7" x 5", $125.-
One of the juvenile Goldfinches that are visiting our yard with their parents to feast on the sunflowers. I love to watch the fun as the little Goldfinches learn to balance on the flowers and feed themselves. I am fascinated with the delicate colors of their plumage, sometimes having to guess if they are male or female.
