One Lump or Two

A superb fairywren perches on the rim of a glossy cobalt blue mug, tail cocked, entirely unbothered — while two honeybees orbit the scene with their own agenda. One Lump or Two is a painting about the small, absurd interruptions of a quiet morning. The deep navy of the mug echoes the wren’s own iridescent plumage, and the blue and white diamond cloth below ties the whole composition into something cohesive and joyful. Painted on board and framed in a chunky natural timber floater frame, this is a small-format work with real presence. Original oil on board.
