Cockatoo

I believe when the subject matter is a person, my role as an artist-is a storyteller. Mixed media is the perfect vehicle. The story began with a portrait and then, piece by piece it evolves with layers of  texture, mono prints, fabrics, and embellishments.  

Cockatoos are from Australia.  They are intuitive, loud and often form life long bonds with a partner.  My son lived in Australia and he loved them. What story do you see?
