Description
-
A wild bird sits, white and pink, facing a large palm tree that takes up the entire right side of the painting. In the foreground, a large palmetto leaf fans out across the entire frame, and behind it sit other tropical plants, green and blue. In the background, mountains and a volcano, colored indigo, sit in front of a teal sea, and beneath a light blue sky.
