“Neotropical”

11x14 inch acrylic painting on panel. Frame not included.

Today we have for you a Blue-and-yellow Macaw

What a beautiful bird! These Macaws hail from the Neotropical regions of the Americas. Along with their Scarlet counterparts, these primarily South American Parrots are so vivid and refreshing to the eye. I love the bright bluish teal dorsum (back) and bright yellowish orange venter (front).

 Do you need a splash of color in your life? These parrots would do! The combination of color and flight speaks of a vivacious and free-spirited creature. Maybe that’s why I want to paint these colorful avian friends, because I need a little more vitality and carefree elements in my life. Sometimes we can get a little to rigid, can’t we?
