Seven golden little birds have perched on thin, barely sketched branches, each in a different pose — some fluff their feathers, others turn toward the viewer. The warm, saturated yellow of their plumage was laid down in one breath and meets a cool, silvery-grey background blurred on wet paper.
Delicate graphite lines draw the tails and branches, keeping the whole in a light, almost illustrative narrative. The piece carries joy and movement, and its pairing of yellow with grey lights up a bedroom, a child's room, and a bright living room.
