The Tiny Despot has arrived! 🌈👑

 



Meet my take on the many-colored rush tyrant (Tachuris rubrigastra). Despite the intimidating name, this rotund fellow is really just a Technicolor Tot ruling over the reeds.

I wanted to capture him as a "Painted Puffball"—the ultimate Marshmallow of the Marsh. He may be small, but in his own mind, he is the undisputed Rainbow Ruler of the wetlands! 

Created for Day 2 of #Birbfest2026, he’s my first completed reveal of the new year.

✨ Miniature Magic ✨This original oil painting is tucked into a vintage ornate frame for a truly regal, "pocket-sized" feel.
Art size: approx. 2.75" x 3.5"
Framed size: approx. 4" x 6"

🏠 Availability: This original framed painting is available for purchase! Please DM me directly for details if you'd like to add this Rainbow Ruler to your collection.
