A single jay rests on a bare branch in this watercolour and ink study. Transparent washes of blue, soft grey and pale buff float over confident black linework, while quick gestural marks hint at leaves and the white of the paper glows through. The painted scene spreads across the full frame, balancing delicate colour with crisp, expressive drawing for a light, airy piece.
