A round-bodied songbird with a grey back and a golden-orange breast rests on a reddish-brown branch. Cream flowers with golden centers and muted olive leaves spread across the branches on both sides. A large, flat butter-yellow moon glows in the upper left against the soft sage green background.

Every element is built from thick, knife-spread paint, so the petals, bark and moon all have a raised, sculpted surface. The restrained palette of greens, creams and warm browns gives the scene a gentle, storybook calm.
