18 x 24"

My favorite warbler is the Blackburnian, with its flaming orange throat. In this painting I used the muted greens and blues of its pine forest habitat to really set off that orange throat, and I purposely left the background abstract so as to not detract from the bird. I’ve offered a zoomed-in view of the Blackburnian, allowing the viewer to peek into its habitat as if unnoticed, while the warbler looks humbly downward, completely unaware of his beauty.
