Media: Acrylic Palette knife
Size: 16x20 in
My latest painting is of four Hyacinth Macaws, the largest macaw in the world, and native to central and eastern South America. I painted it to help raise awareness to their endangerment due to habitat loss, and being trapped for the pet trade. Painted with a palette knife using acrylic on 16 x 20 canvas. My own composition using reference photos by Fernanda Fontoura and Christoph Hrdina. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to Projecto Arara Azul. http://www.projetoararaazul.org.br/Arara/default.aspx A project that studies the biology and ecological relationships of the Hyacinth Macaws, performs the management and promotes the conservation of blue macaws in their natural environment. Comes varnished, and with an Authentication Certificate.
