Macaw

A short test if I still can handle painting with oil colors. I haven't done a real painting for some years so before I start a painting (and fail at it ) I wanted to check if I'm still able to do something like that at all.
I used a reference photo by Denise Soden (look at her photos, they are great!): [link]
(This one does not exactly match the reference, but who cares, it's a test.)
