This portrait of my house guest, Suzie the baby sunbird was painted at the beginning of lockdown 3 months ago.
She flew out of her nest on my balcony and landed on my living room floor, feeling dazed and confused. I watched her from the sofa as she sat there plucking up courage to attempt another flight after the fall. She took her time, waddled around, flew to the edge of the balcony and with all her strength and courage, flew off to the unknown.

Suzie is soooo cute. Birds can panic so much when they enter a flat by mistake… I’m glad she could fly away. And that you could paint her.

So cute! Very beautiful.

What delicate lines. Pure tenderness your drawing. You make one admire the beauty of an animal about to leave. You made an excellent painting. Like all the ones you give us. Good Sunday to you.
