Beautiful Betty v & f. I love your bird photos and this one is really special. Your painting skills are as top-notch as your photography. The detail in the feathers and the bird's expression - just wonderful. Congrats on your recent sale!

. love the Congo African Grey Parrot . . the CAG is very intelligent . . They have a beautiful scarlet red tail which for me was such a surprise to see and such large expressive eyes . . they are so sweet . . I've only seen one here on Maui . a beautiful "pet" in a very large beautiful cage in a courtyard at a restaurant in Paia . . love the soft textures of this lovely portrait Betty :)
Betty LaRue replied:
Thank you, Sharon. We have two of them, a male and a female. Wonderfully intelligent and loving pets, excellent talkers!

What a beautiful portrait Betty! Echo must be proud :)
Betty LaRue replied:
Thank you, Ellen, I hope she is, lol! She usually doesn't like posing for me, but did this time.

This is beautiful, love how it emerges and the eyes are stunning
Betty LaRue replied:
Kym, thank you for those sweet words. This is Echo, my pet, who cuddles with me and gives me kisses. I've had her for about 15 years. She can live to 70 years old. She talks, too!
