DescriptionMatted watercolor of a single bird in a forest. The bird is blue and sits on a red and green bush in the very center of the image. Behind it are four defined trees and there is a streak of blue in the lower right suggesting a waterfall. Yellow, blue, green, and black are applied over washes of color in a pointillist technique. The entire surface of the image and mat are covered by a sheet of clear, reflective plastic or vinyl.
