The story

Arthur spent three weeks convincing the bird to wear the raincoat. He believed it added a necessary layer of distance to their relationship. The bird stood perfectly still, staring at the wall with a look of profound indifference. Arthur checked his watch and sighed, realizing that the gesture had lost its meaning long before the paint dried.

The brief

An indigobird stands in profile against a beige wall, its feathers rendered in flat, saturated indigo. The bird wears a small, translucent raincoat. The room is lit by a single overhead bulb, casting a sharp shadow across the worn linoleum floor.

The painting and the story were written from this same scene, so the two describe one moment.
