Today's work is titled:

The Cumanese macaw.

MY MATERIALS.

The materials I used on this occasion were: watercolor, white acrylic, my watercolor brushes, on FABRIANO cardboard, Panasonic camera, LUMIX FZ47 brand, Adobe Photoshop digitizing program, for digital modifications and Power Point, to convert the images to jpg format.

STEP BY STEP PROCESS.

Friend spectator, curator and faithful follower of my artistic creations, I am pleased to show the step by step how the Cumanese macaw makes it, from the beginning to the end, so pay attention to the process illustrated...

THE BEGINNING.

I begin the sketch, with loose lines made with a 6B pencil, to achieve the drawing of the bird.

THE COLOR.

Apply the vermilion red color and a No. 4 brush, as shown in the image.

Notice how I have been progressing in the illustration, I have already applied the colors orange, blue green, light and dark brown to the body of the bird, and at this moment I am already detailing the part of the eye .

Staining ultramarine blue to make the part of the sky.

While I started to do the details with a brush No. 001.

Details in the plumage, made with red mixed with black.

Look at all the details of the bird, its tail was made with some green spots, olive color for the foliage, and in the background of the illustration with purple color I will make the distant hill.

Detailing the bushes with a brush No. 01 and the dark olive green color, the branch where the bird perches in black and gray, and the bird's legs with yellow and orange.

The details of the tree were made with apple green and dark green, I also intensified the colors of the bird.

As ​​you can see, apply the fuchsia color to the flowers of the tree.

This is how the work is looking.

Adding a few more details, like a bird flying in the sky, to reveal the illustration titled:

The Cumanese macaw.

Dear viewers, curators and faithful followers, I hope with all my heart that you liked the illustration of the macaw, I painted them because in the Ayacucho park of Cumaná, there are a large number of macaws, parrots , cockatoos and parakeets that fly from tree to tree, brightening the place, which made me remember that a long time ago a great friend who had an arepera in the city, dedicated himself to collecting birds of all kinds, but when he became seriously ill He told me:

-Ramaco I am sick and I don't know what to do with my birds,
I have to go to Spain and I have to release the birds in a place where they feel protected.

That nightI accompanied him to release the birds, we put them all in the cabin of a truck, he told me that we would release them at night, to prevent anyone from seeing them, because they could hurt them; We released them in the Ayacucho and Guaiqueri parks, since that moment they have expanded throughout the historic center and throughout Cumaná, in addition the birds are very cared for by the officials, park caretakers and the people who live in those parks, which It reminds me of my good friend Arturo, whom out of affection I called Arturo Arepita, and he responded to me as Brochita, a happy painter...

I hope you liked this short and moving story of the birds of my friend Arturo Arepita, I hope that God has this good man in glory and knows that his birds are well cared for and beautiful in the city parks...

Thank you very much for your kind attention

A hug, I love you very much.
