We are pleased to offer for sale this charming and meticulously detailed gouache/watercolour by the artist Richard Britton, who has signed the painting to the lower right hand corner. The painting depicts a pair of Northern Cardinal birds (Cardinalis cardinalis) perched on an old post and a nearby bramble. The male is a handsome, colourful songbird, although his mate is also very attractive. These birds are residents of Southern Canada, through the eastern United States from Maine to Texas and south through Mexico. Their habitat is woodlands, gardens, shrublands and swamps. The Northern Cardinal is the State Bird of 7 US states, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, North Carolina, Ohio, Virginia, and West Virginia.
