Polly's Dance

Polly's Dance/ watercolor/ 6" x 6"/ $75
We saw this parrot outside a minimart when we were traveling. The bird saw us watching him and proceeded to "dance" and strut, bob and shout "Hello, Hello". It is painted in wet washes of analogous colors: carmine, alizarin crimson, scarlet red, transparent orange, aureolin and then some horizon blue and sap green in the wing feathers

If you see some displaced spiders, they are probably ones moved during my studio cleaning. Probably this revised space will make for some great painting experiments!
