Billing and Cooing is a 2007 by Bill Pryde, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This print shows a bright red square with a white rectangle inside it. Inside that white space are three black shapes that look like birds and a green vine with three leaves. The birds are simple, flat shapes with no detail. The vine and leaves are also flat, but the green stands out against the red. The title *Billing and Cooing* hints at the birds, but the painting doesn’t show any action—just shapes and colors. The artist used bold, flat areas of color with no shading or texture.
