A fine lively watercolour illustration, with title text "...injured fallow hind to be shot - I was ready waiting for the take off..." features male and female mallard and four pochard taking off from the water. Signed and dated to the bottom right hand corner. The image size is approximately 350 mm x 255 mm. The overall size including mount and frame is 515 x 425 mm. In fine condition, acid free double mount with solid wood frame. A very well executed ornithological watercolour. [ James McCallum is an artist based in North Norfolk. He is a graduate of The Royal College of Art and is best known for his watercolour paintings of the natural world, particularly birds, made outdoors from life. Working outdoors in this manner has enabled him to develop a thorough knowledge of the behaviour and visual language of wildlife in its chosen surroundings. The resulting pictures made rapidly whilst watching have an authenticity and energy difficult to reproduce in the studio. Many of these paintings are reproduced in a series of James McCallum's books.]
