Barbara Rae Norridge

Description

Barbara’s love of birds, especially game birds and waders, have now become the main inspiration for her more recent work. Through her close observation she translates their idiosyncrasies whilst highlighting their beauty and frailty. Her compositions often depict groups of birds that seems to suggest that there is a sense of social gathering taking place. Barbara is passionate about the protection of our wetlands and deeply concerned for the decline in the numbers of songbirds and hopes to raise awareness through her work.
