Back-combed Plumage
Oil on Box Canvas
30x30cm

Great back-combed plumage mounds climb the skies to show off their voluminous finery. The bright brilliance of the sun's goodbye to the day highlights their every curve, exploding the sky into a feather-ruffled, flamingo-pink abundance.

Oil on Box Canvas
30x30cm
