About The Artwork

The Rio Grande Wild Turkey (Meleagris gallopavo intermedia) has a unique 'drip-castle' type of head, made of a myriad skin-bulges - and creases, giving it his raw, red, intense appearance. Above it's sharp-pointed beak, rises - at 90 degrees (perpendicularly) - a so-called snood (small 'horn'). I love painting, patiently and precisely, bump by bump, brush-stroke by brush-stroke, the intricate detail of his delicate wattles and caruncles (his skin folds). Thus, slowly, almost imperceptibly, the little lumps integrate more and more into a whole: the actual head of this feisty bird. The painting comes without a frame. I always paint the sides of the work, so that the scene carries over to the edges. This way there is the option of not framing. I also wire my paintings. Thus, the work is totally finished and ready to hang.

1964, Schiedam,The Netherlands, Clara Bastian. After attending the art academy (ABK Rotterdam) Clara Bastian (1964) obtained a foundational course in biology, a study that met her fascination for anatomy.Her oeuvre consists of commission portraits as well as free work. Her free work does not only show her mastery of the trade, but above all her original view of reality.The intriguing portraits of animals and people that Clara Bastian makes are painted with great skill. With the reproduction of texture, light and shadows her work seems almost more realistic than a photograph… http://www.dutchcows.com http://www.clarabastian.com
