A red-billed magpie perches upright in deep blue and black plumage, its long tail feathers rendered with meticulous detail and subtle striping, while delicate pencil sketches of anatomical studies occupy the left side of the composition. The warm cream ground and precise ornithological rendering reflect the scientific illustration tradition of the 19th century, capturing both the bird's living presence and its structural form. Printed on clear acrylic and made to order in two sizes. A serving piece for the dinner party or a pop of color as a kitchen accent, carrying an independent artist's work instead of a big-box print.
