Materials used
Paper
arches coldpress block, 11 x 14 inches
(I am a brand ambassador for Arches Paper but have been using their products before I was)
Colors Used
Cobalt Teal
Cerulean Blue
Sap Green
Cascade Green
Cadmium Yellow
Burnt Sienna
Payne's Gray
Brushes
I am using brushes by the brand princeton
I would recommend a small round (3/0 - 2)
a medium (6 - 8)
and depending on how large you paint your macaw you may need a larger brush, larger brushes also help you paint looser/add more pigment at once
I used a 10 or 12 round brush

*Feel free to use the reference image for your own paintings as it is not my image. But please do not sell paintings that look almost exactly like mine (for example, nearly every brush stroke is in the same exact spot and no new creative effort is added)

Love the color combination, especially the blues and yellows!
Thank you for that tutorial, i love your works.
Love this! But then I love all your paintings.
What about doing an octopus?
Great idea!
Beautiful!!
Love watching your videos because I struggle with the loose technique of painting. I always put too much detail and overwork the piece.
It would be really helpful, to me, if you could show the original reference photo to one side of the screen so that we can understand how you transfer your inspiration to the paper and how it compares.
I often link the reference image in the video description. It takes a lot of practice to learn how to not to overwork things, so try to be patient with yourself.
@@paintedwing Thank you. Trying to 'unlearn' a technique, I find, is almost as difficult as learning from scratch. Telling myself to 'step away' from the painting and put down the brushes is quite a hurdle
Thanks so much for this tutorial. I am wanting to try these techniques. Beautiful!
Thank you! Hope you do!
This is such a clear, concise, nicely paced and well executed tutorial. Very well done! Thank you
❤👏👏

Thank you for sharing this. My parrot came out great. I’m very happy with it!
that is sooo beautiful
I do love the texture in your paintings. Thanks for sharing 🤗
I've been watching you for months and would love to see you try an Elegant Trogon - they are vibrant and nobody on TH-cam seems to have done one
Can you show us a tutorial on peacock painting ? We would love it ❤
Good job
This macaw is so beautiful!! ❤
I’ve been following you since you started making videos and I am so thrilled seeing your success!!
You are my favorite artist and I aspire to paint like you someday. I just love the layered look in your washes and the details which, in combination, create a beautiful balance.
I look forward to receiving your book that I pre-ordered in support of you! Congratulations!🍾🎊🎉🎈
Thank you so much for the sweet comment and support!
