Macaws and Orchids

My friend and also art student, Sandy, brought me a blouse and asked me to paint something tropical or exotic on the back of it. Knowing her love of bright color I chose these two Macaws. They are painted in acrylics on a chambry fabric. The picture just does not show the true brilliance of the colors, but at least you can see most of the detail in the painting. Sandy was ecstatic over it. I hope it brings her much joy when she wears it. It certainly was alot of fun to paint.
