3.5 hours into my painting i started last night :) halfway done! I made his eyeball way too big. Sorry for the poor quality photoView attachment 160809

It's a blue and gold macaw!! :wub: i have an Amazon parrot, but always wanted a blue and gold at some point as well. Might not happen, but maybe one day! My dad used to own a Scarlet Macaw, if you want to check out a very colourful parrot.

This is really good though! I can sorta see what you mean with the eye, but it's very close. I'm sure you can fix it, and the rest is still wonderful!

I almost did a scarlet but decided on blue and gold instead!! Yeah im just going to leave the eye too big, it turned out good just large :)
 
Second pic is really bad lighting haha. I finished! Now just to varnish before I take it to the brewery (if it doesnt sell on Saturday)

AHHH that’s gorgeous. Do you use reference photos?
Usually yes. If im doing a painting of multiple things, i dont find a photo of all of them together, i find multiple photos of each thing, just so i can get them proportionate and combine them myself on the canvas
 
Todays piece, a shaking dog acrylic on 30x40" canvas. Do you think it needs more white splatters? Im not sure how to give it more motion

No idea if this counts as self promotion, if it does please delete it @Fishmanic @WhistlingBadger @Essjay @Wills
(Or if you dont wanna delete but want it changed i can blur the words out?)

But, i got my cards finally and they look so good!!! Im so happy with them! Did a farmers market today :)
