Default Eclectus Parrot...
I've been busy with all sorts of shows recently- So haven't done many birds... But, I'm back at it again, and this time in COLOR...

Here is Ms. 'Clectus, My Eclectus Hen-



And, a closeup-





It's 8 x 10, Prismacolor pencils on paper.

Colored pencil does parrots a lot more justice than Graphite, for sure

Hi! I have missed you here. Everyday I walk by my wall of your sketches, I think about how lucky I am to know such a talent. Beautiful colored sketches.

Thanks, Everyone... I decided that it wasn't done, I finished it up this morning-





The darker BG makes her pop a bit more, and I shaded the body a bit for more 'depth..."
