The flamingo and the lagoon_Plastic nature V

A pink balloon flamingo stands in a distinctive position on one leg, surrounded by tropical vegetation. This 114x60cm vertical work captures the unmistakable elegance of flamingos.

The elongated vertical format was chosen to accentuate the flamingo's upright posture. The bird's metallic pink was worked with different shades—from soft pinks to deeper fuchsias—creating volume through color. The slender legs contrast with the balloon's rounded body.

The background vegetation in greens and blues frames the flamingo without competing for prominence. This piece has a more minimalist composition than other works in the series, allowing the flamingo to be the absolute focal point. Perfect for vertical spaces such as hallways or narrow walls.
