About this work

This painting shows bright, odd animals in a dreamy forest. A blue peacock with a long tail stands on a tree branch, while a red deer with big antlers floats near the ground. The background is a mix of green and blue, with simple leaves and a sky that looks like water. The artist used bold colors and simple shapes, making the animals look almost like cartoons. The deer’s antlers and the peacock’s tail are drawn in a way that feels both real and made-up. Check out the Museum of Ethnography to see more works like this.
