This is an original linocut of one of Australia's most iconic birds, the graceful Yellow-tailed Black Cockatoo curiously observing the local environment. Look carefully and you'll see the banksia pattern in the background. Australia is lucky to have some of the most beautiful birds ever seen and we can all play a part in ensuring they continue to enjoy a sustainable environment.

The Artist, Nicole Spillane is inspired by Australia's unique birds, animals, and plant life, especially those that share her inner-city environment. She appreciates the imperfections that come with the manual aspect of printmaking, and believes they add character to the piece.

Linocuts are a type of block or relief printing, where an image is carved in reverse on a block of lino which is then inked with a roller. An impression is taken by applying pressure to transfer the ink to paper. Several blocks may be used for coloured prints.
