Meet ‘Fanfare’ — a lively celebration of Australia’s much-loved Rufous Fantail. This is a one-of-a-kind original Australian bird artwork, hand painted in ink and watercolour, capturing the constant motion and personality of these fascinating native birds.

The Rufous Fantail is known for its restless energy and signature tail-flitting behaviour, and this original bird painting captures that sense of movement in full swing. Flowing brushwork and rich burnt orange tones bring warmth, rhythm and vibrancy to the composition, creating a sense that the birds are never still — always flitting about.

This is a unique original Australiana artwork, making it a true collector’s piece for lovers of Australian wildlife art, original bird paintings, and contemporary Australiana home décor.

To highlight the detail and authenticity of the original work, ‘Fanfare’ is professionally float-mounted, allowing the edges of the artwork to remain visible and reinforcing its status as a hand-painted original. It is then professionally framed behind premium non-reflective art glass, reducing glare so the colour, texture and movement of the ink and watercolour painting can be experienced in full light, from every angle.

Perfect for collectors of** original Australian bird art, Rufous Fantail artwork, Frogmouth art, and contemporary wildlife wall art**, this piece is ready to hang and designed to bring movement, energy and a little wild Australian magic into your space.

This original has been float-mounted and framed with Tasmanian Oak under non-reflective art glass. 

Art size: 260 x 260mm. Frame size: 360x360mm

This artwork has been hand painted with professional-grade watercolour paint and detailed with a traditional nib and highly concentrated ink on 300gsm 100% cotton hot-pressed watercolour paper. 
*Price is for the framed artwork only. Freight will be based on your delivery location. Sydney, NSW pick up available.

 

Fun facts about the Rufous Fantail:

The Rufous Fantail is found in northern and eastern coastal Australia, being more common in the north. It is also found in New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Sulawesi and Guam. The dainty Rufous Fantail is usually seen flitting about below the canopy of moist eucalypt forests and rainforests, inhabiting the dense, shady undergrowth of gullies. Foraging mostly in the air, they often perch restlessly on the branches, with their wings continually fidgeting and the tail almost always fanned, regularly making short, jerky flights out from the perch, flitting and fluttering, diving, twisting and looping near the foliage and branches to dislodge, flush out or catch insect prey. When fanned, its tail is almost twice as wide as its body and, unlike many bird species where the male has the more impressive plumage, the female Rufous Fantail is just as brightly coloured, if a little smaller. Sometimes Rufous Fantails join forces with other birds to hunt out the small insects they love to eat, teaming up with the Spectacled Monarch, Large-Billed Scrubwren, Green-Backed Honeyeater and the Little Shrike-thrush. The Rufous Fantail’s call is either a series of thin whistles with rising pitch or making a single or double ‘chip’. Their call can serve as both an alarm to warn off predators when hunting for food or as a way to attract a mate. Conservation Status: Secure.

BEST ART BOOK (GREAT GIFT FOR Legend Of Korra FANS)
It is a beautiful book. It was everything I hoped for, but it was bigger than I expected. (I didn't see the measurements/size...oops) The artwork inside is incredible, the detail and effort that was put into this book is amazing. I am a huge Legend of Korra fan, so I was a little nervous when I bought the book. I had my doubts but when received it I was so pleased with it. I could not be happier with this book. I highly recommend this book to anyone considering it to either give to a friend or to buy for personal use.

A good one, albeit not a perfect one
It is a comprehensive look into the series with lots of wonderful art. I felt that it was thinner than the previous book from the Avatar series but I'm not talking about the length of the book (I know this one has less pages an only covers one season) but rather about the "insights" into the creative process. While the previous book felt full to the seams and you could feel that there was a lot of important material that didn't fit, you also felt that all the material that did was included was the best. In this one for Korra, you feel that there were many important things left out that should have been included and there are some things that were included that doesn't feel as important...

Everything you wanted put into a art book
I loved this art book. It showed me basically everything I wanted to see from back drops used and unused, old character designs and how some things came to be or what they were inspired by. The commentary is great though rarely confusing (Ex: at one point they commentary refers to a picture in the top right but says "As you can see by the design in the middle" the middle being something completely different) I feel like this book is a must for fans and people interested in the art of the series alike.

This is how you make an artbook!!
It's so awesome to open an artbook and see every stage of the character and how it all came together. It's always fun and interesting to know how Korra was made, and why whe looks the way it looks. It's really cool to read the different ideas that came up for a certain character and why they decided that a certain design worked better than the previous ones! It's also really interesting and delicious to read about how they inspired themselves in known architecture to create the environment in this tv series. I simply loved it and I'm excited to know that I'll be buying the other Korra artbooks!!!

Great artwork for a great series!! Recommended to artists, animators and fans of the series
It's been a while since the Avatar: The Last Airbender series ran on TV. I really loved that series because it dealt with a lot of eastern cultures themes and it was not the average children TV show. Despite its children characters the show runners manged to find a balance between drama and comedy. Now about the art book: that series (Avatar) had its own book (all seasons in one single book) but this time we are getting one book entirely dedicated to the first season, which makes it great. Why? Because we are getting more artwork per episode, most of it in full-color. I would have liked to see more of the character design, I mean how they got to the final version. Most of the characters are shown in their final version with some costume variants but that's it, no development. One thing missing this time (both from the series and this book) is the animal designs. They had a lot 2-animal-fusion designs on the previous show but this time we get to see almost nothing. I know it is because the series is takes place mainly in Republic City. And wow! what a nice city it is. All the artwork dedicated to set Republic City's mood, the 1920s, the steam-punk influence, the fashion, everything just fits perfectly! There is a couple of aerial views (day & night) which are my favorite from the book. This new guy they hired to do the background paintings has done a great job! Every background and every building design have so much detail that they will make your jaw just drop. I like the fact they are paintings with no pencil lines, just paint brushed over the design, which makes it look richer! Now, I am giving this book a 4-star rating because of the reasons I have already explained and the fact that we are not getting that much in-depth information like we got from the Avatar art book . I must say this is not an animation book, this is an art book that depicts backgrounds, characters and vehicles. You will get to see a few storyboarded sequences but this book is not intended to teach you about animation. I seriously recommend this book to any person interested in art and animation. The artwork is so well achieved that you will be left wanting to see more.
