About this work

This painting shows two bright orange birds with long necks and curved beaks standing on a rocky ground. One bird faces left, the other right, with a few white eggs on the ground between them. The sky is a mix of blues and yellows, with thick, swirling brushstrokes that make the clouds and landscape look almost alive. The birds’ colors pop against the softer background, and the paint is applied thickly in places, giving it a textured look. The scene feels dreamlike, with shapes that don’t quite match reality. This painting uses impasto, where paint is laid on thickly to create texture.
