22x15 watercolor of three yellow crested cockatoos amongst vivid orchid-looking tropical flowers, an imaginary scene. I love to paint white birds and each endeavor is a challenge to sneak enough color into their wings to have proper value scale. This one was done a few years ago wet in wet on 140 lb cold press paper. I've used some negative painting shapes here and there.
