The Barn Swallow (Hirundo rustica) is the most widespread species of swallow in the world. It is a distinctive passerine bird with blue upperparts, a long, deeply forked tail and curved, pointed wings. It is found in Europe, Asia, Africa and the Americas.

I enjoyed painting the blues, it has such light touch of violet that makes the blues look so rich... I enjoy working with the oils just for that!! The colours and the paints make the subjects come alive...
