Pen & ink watercolor blending. Up close view of a pink and white and yellow Yulan Magnolia flower with a small ruby-throated hummingbird staring at it, the background is nebulous, ethereal but not not all white, very light impressions of green grass and the branch the Yulan Magnolia sits on, The image conveys how much a Yulan Magnolia looks like a bird, and how confusing it is for a bird to see the flower.
A watercolor painting depicts a detailed ruby-throated hummingbird with a green back and white belly, a bright red throat patch, and a long dark beak, hovering in the upper left, facing a large, partially opened magnolia flower in the upper right. The flower has petals in shades of pink, yellow, and white, with a darker outline and subtle line patterns on the petals, resembling a bird's head with a dark eye and a precise, thin yellow beak. The flower is attached to a gnarled, dark brown and green branch that extends from the bottom right towards the center. The background features soft, blurred watercolor washes and splatters in muted greens, grays, and pinks, suggesting foliage and an abstract atmospheric effect. The artist's signature "peg fulton" is subtly placed in the bottom right corner.
