Description
This is a little acrylic painting I did with a coaster design in mind. I wanted bright/bold colors and simple shapes.As for the title, a Zaunkoenig is one of my favorite birds, mainly because of it's name. Zaunkoenig means as much as "king of the garden fence". I tried to look the word up in english and the only word I found was "wren".
Hope you enjoy !
Original is available in my Etsy Store.

Zaunkoenige are the smallest birds here in Germany didn't know that they are also in Amerika. Like this blue on orange

Ok, I've been wondering about this for a while now, since I saw you listening to Bandits in your journal and now this deviation is called Zaunkoenig. Are you somewhat related to Germany? Just had to ask!
Now... back to commenting! I really love how the texture of the canvas shines through, that gives it a nice effect!
