Two Can Toucan

Here are a pair of Ariel/Channel-billed Toucans I recently finished. This was a birthday gift for my mom, but there are so many colorful varieties of toucans out there that I will most definitely be doing more portraits in the future!

New Bird series

Greetings!

My apologies for not posting in a while, thank you to my blog followers for your support and encouragement!

I have been pleasantly surprised at the great response my "Regal Pelican" piece has been getting, and it has definitely lifted my spirits! As a result I have decided to continue with an entire bird series, which I've already gotten a lot of positive feedback about. Among the list of upcoming birdie subjects: A Toucan, a pair of small colorful parrots, a larger red and blue parrot, some lesser-known hawk varieties, and eventually some flamingos! I'd like to open it up for more input; what birds out there do you find particularly lovely? If you have a suggestion of a kind of bird you think would make a beautiful piece of art, let me know and I just might add it to the list!
