4" x 6" Original Magpie Painting on Cradled Wood Panel – Acrylic

This is an original acrylic painting of a magpie, created on a 4" x 6" cradled wood panel with a 1.5" depth. Each piece is hand-painted by me and designed to stand alone as a small, finished work or to be displayed as part of a collection.

The sides of the panel are painted black, giving it a clean, gallery-ready presentation—no frame required.

The palette is centered around soft, layered blue-grey tones in the background, creating a calm, open space around the subject. The magpie is rendered in deep blacks with subtle shifts into indigo and blue, with contrasting white areas that define the form. The tail carries hints of green, adding depth and variation, while the surrounding leaves introduce warm ochres and muted golds that balance the cooler tones of the sky.
