Japanese Bud Vase & Chickadee
16×20
oil/board
$3200

Available at Gardner Colby Gallery: Naples, Florida

I bought this antique Japanese vase on EBay of all places! In fact, I find many interesting vessels on that site. I was drawn to its black and white patterns. The chickadee compliments the vase with its varying degrees of black and white feathers. The green backdrop adds a sense of mystery in the shadows.
