Green Cardinal

CARDINAL GREEN Acrylic & Glitter on Wood Panel | 8" × 10" | 2022 Custom Framed

RED. On GREEN. The word says so.

Cardinal Green is the third and most declarative of the Cardinal series — the Northern Cardinal rendered in deep, vivid crimson against a ground of the most electric, uncompromising green imaginable, the word GREEN painted across the background in white letters that wrap around the bird with the casual confidence of a painting that knows exactly what it is and has decided to announce it. The branch the cardinal sits on glitters — literally, physically, the silver glitter catching every available photon and returning it with interest, a perch that is simultaneously naturalistic and completely, gloriously excessive.

The red against the green is the whole painting — complementary colours at maximum saturation, the kind of colour relationship that makes the eye vibrate in the best possible way. The cardinal sits within it with complete composure, utterly unbothered by the fact that his branch sparkles, that his background announces itself by name, that he is the reddest thing in the greenest possible world.

He has always been the reddest thing in the greenest possible world. The painting simply makes it official.

Together Orange Cardinal, Blue Cardinal and Cardinal Green form a complete triptych — three paintings, three grounds, one bird, endlessly itself across all of them. Collect the set. The wall that holds all three needs nothing else.
