Meet Martin, the whimsical parrot who decided to show up in a whirlwind of color and personality. At 30 by 40 inches, he’s bigger than life, with feathers that practically buzz with blues, reds, and yellows. Painting him was like chasing a tropical breeze—each brushstroke layered thick and lively, capturing the energy and attitude only a macaw can pull off. I love how his sharp black beak and bold facial markings stand out against a lush green background that feels like his own slice of jungle. Martin was a joy to bring to life, and I hope he brightens your day as much as he did mine in the studio.
