Artist Notes:

The delicate black Oriental border that is dotted with red dots, at each corner, encloses a magnificent Chinese card for the holiday of Chinese New Year of the Rooster. A white rooster decorated with tail plumage of high arching black, red, gold and white feathers, fills the right side of the red and black card, making him stand out with importance. He is contemplating the hanging red lantern before him, as it sways below the white orange blossoms over his head. Filling the lantern are Chinese characters that are hand lettered and spell out the Chinese word for "Rooster". The card's inside is blank for your own personal note to the recipient.
