AI-generated painting and story

The story
The pipit had been waiting for something to happen for exactly seventeen minutes, though it could not say what. It had tried humming, but the wall did not respond. It considered tapping its foot, but decided that would be too eager. Instead, it remained still, one feather askew, and waited for the silence to decide whether it was worth breaking. The light did not change. The wall did not blink. The pipit, for its part, did not breathe loudly.
The brief
A small, slightly asymmetrical pipit with one feather slightly ruffled stands motionless on a plain wooden windowsill, facing a blank off-white wall under flat, even daylight, its beak slightly open as if mid-thought, the room otherwise empty and silent.
The painting and the story were written from this same scene, so the two describe one moment.
