Cockatoo Karma

15x11 watercolor of white cockatoo named Karma that I painted today from black & white photo ref of my friend Valri in Florida. The bird was in a kitchen setting  so I took artistic license and changed that to a tropical scene and jazzed her up at the same time.  Paper is Canson 140 lb cold press, Daniel Smith paints, done wet on dry.
