Painting 30 in 30 - Day 23/Macaw

"The Preen"
7" x 12"
watercolor on Arches 140 lb. coldpress


Feathers and more feathers today, I got
completely lost...
in time - that is.

Enjoyed this one. 
I personally met this bird, Mya,
while RVing in Oregon a few
years back as the owner was
walking with the bird around the
campground loop.  What a magnificent
macaw!  Took lots of photos
of course (knowing that someday
I would paint her) and the owner allowed 
me to allow the bird to perch
on my arm and we 
talked for quite awhile
about her.  Neat experience.

Don't forget to visit Leslie Saeta's
