PORTRAIT COMPLETED:
September 2018

This is my little Albino Ring neck, Casper. He was born in 2006 and has shared a home with other birds over the years, all sadly passed now. Casper seems happy enough living alone and has free reign of the bedroom. The image I chose for his portrait was when he found a favourite perch, he sat up there often swinging around on it, chewing the tassel that hung from it. He seems rather happy here when he had chewed it off.

This is one of my favourite photos of Casper and as my favourite colour is green, this image was chosen.

Traditional Heart acrylic painting of an albino ring neck parakeet

This portrait of Casper was created to be framed along with a smaller heart of my late Cockatiel, you can view Tiko's portrait here. Both portraits are currently displayed on coloured metal stands until I am able to organise the specialised frame that they will both be fitted into and will provide a photo of the finished product once available.
