Artist's comment on The Bird Series:
"I did the initial sketches for these works in Townsville when I was doing some graphics for an ABC television program "Wild Australia", a wildlife series", said John Olsen.
John Olsen painted the original watercolour and pastel artworks in Sydney in 1983, upon his return from Queensland.
The "Jacanas" bird which features in this series of works is know as "The Christ Bird" because it's big feet allow the little bird to run across the water lillies, as if it is walking on water.
These four works make up a beautiful suite of John Olsen works encapsulating that tropical journey.
