The bird is painted in layers of orange, red and gold that build from the dark ground upward, the plumage almost luminous against the black, the crest catching a light that has no obvious source. Gold paint splashes across the background like sparks or scattered seeds or simply paint celebrating the fact that it gets to be gold. The word ORANGE is stencilled into the dark ground behind the bird — visible, barely, like a label on something that has long since exceeded its description.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cardinal perches with the composed stillness of something that knows it is the brightest thing in any tree it has ever sat in and has made its peace with the responsibility. The black frame contains all of that warmth and makes it burn brighter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a painting about colour as pure feeling — the orange and red and gold of a cardinal in winter light, against darkness, doing what cardinals always do which is make everything around them look like it was waiting for them to arrive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e📦 Shipping \u0026amp; Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e8\" × 10\"\u003c\/strong\u003e original acrylic on wood panel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCustom black frame\u003c\/strong\u003e — arrives gallery ready\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSigned and dated 2022\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShips carefully packaged — ready to hang\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCertificate of authenticity included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eOne original.
