Cockatoo Toys
4″ x 6″ Watercolor Postcard
This cockatoo lives in this tree and greets all visitors to
Currumbin bird sanctuary, in Australia. He is free to come and go as he pleases. With all the little toys they have attached to that tree, I can see why he keeps coming back. It was a reference by Crispur2005 on this
weekend’s WDE at WetCanvas.
I had a great time playing with my watercolors Saturday. I also played with my acrylics and have several new paintings to share.
