Blue Mountain Lory, Old Birdlover's Watercolor turned wooden soldier rich black design against lushA few more this week from a larger set of wonderful old naive watercolors birds, done by someone long ago who clearly loved their birds. With carefully handwritten in capital letters attributions on each that I think makes them extra good. And what color and drama to this Blue Mountain Lory making me want to add a G to make Glory! Wonderful. 7" t x 5" w and in good condition.
