The Red Parrot – I don’t know if red parrots are rare or not, but it sure was hard to find examples to work from. To achieve a bright sunlit look using reds is difficult without it getting pink on you, so after experimenting with different combinations I finally got there, at least I think so. I really won’t know until I hear from some you viewers. Please, your comments are always welcome.

The Blue Parrot - Oil on 9 x 12 Canvas Panel


SOLD 2/05/2008





The Blue Parrot – I love these parrots as they offer such color intensity and there are so many different varieties of them. I’d bet you could paint one a day for at least 3 months and not paint the same one twice. Let me know what you think…

Sun Conure Parrot – Painting the whole bird is much different than painting just the head. It’s harder to show any kind of emotion this way. The Sun Conure can be found naturally in eastern South America, mostly north of the Amazon River, also they were exported to and are now found in Mexico and the Caribbean. Their beautiful coloring makes them highly sought after and their ability to love their human companions adds to their charm. The Sun Conure Parrot.

THE WHITE PARROT - How do you give a painting personality? To me the scene has to depict action or emotion of some kind, sometimes a small action will do. In this painting I tried to bring out the personality by showing the bird looking curiously at the viewer. You tell me, did I accomplish it??? Comments welcomed.
