The story
The oriole had been invited to the Duchess’s tea party under the impression it was a costume gala. It arrived three hours early, having spent forty minutes choosing the right amount of glitter for its wing feathers. Now, alone in the room, it waits, terrified that if it moves, the teacup will tip and reveal the truth: it is not a guest, but a very confused bird who mistook an invitation for a summons.
The brief
An oriole with glossy black and orange feathers stands rigidly on a gilded perch in a sunlit Victorian parlor, one claw slightly lifted as if mid-step, its head tilted with exaggerated poise while a single tear glistens near its eye, surrounded by faded floral wallpaper and a half-empty teacup on a side table.
The painting and the story were written from this same scene, so the two describe one moment.
