Lotus Breeze & Kingfisher Whisper | Original Flower & Bird Oil Painting

composition of traditional Chinese round fans, this painting blends the delicacy of Song Dynasty fine brushwork with the color palette of modern oil painting. Breaking away from the bold colors of traditional lotus paintings, it features a soft Morandi pink background paired with translucent Tiffany blue lotus leaves and pure white lotus flowers, creating a soothing, healing, and inherently sophisticated color scheme.

The artist uses intricate brushstrokes to depict the detailed feather texture of the kingfisher, whose red beak and blue plumage are rendered with lifelike precision. Perched calmly on a lotus seed pod, the bird creates a beautiful contrast of motion and stillness with the blooming flower and the budding bud. The circular artwork is elegantly framed with double matting, a vintage gray wood grain outer frame, and a champagne gold inner trim—perfectly replicating the elegance of Chinese mounting while suiting modern home aesthetics.
