For all of you who are not familiar with this strange,
funny and very entertaining practice,watch this :

I love your paintings. You already painted beautiful parrots, this is just your cup of tea. Having said that, seeing any birds in a cage makes me very sad :( They were born to be free and flying in the wild...just my opinion.
Rupa: Great to hear from you (I guess its been quite some time). I am drawn towards parrots now, more than ever. I think the obsession swings between painting women and these beautiful birds. The cage makes me sad too and I like that about these paintings. Most often my artwork has been about festive joy and celebration, this is new. Also, the 'Fortune-telling parrots' was a subject too interesting for me to skip.
Love the green. It is so electric.

Hi Dithi,
I see these fortune telling parrots on the pavement all the time. I've often thought of drawing them.
Your two pictures are stunning, the way you've stylized them from the photograph and made it your own.
Renée: Love green:)
Priya: Thank you. Coming from you, the feedback is ''precious''. I would love to see your rendition (sketch).
Gorgeous, Gorgeous birds!
What happy colors but unhappy birds to be shut in a little cage. I've never heard of this before, so thanks for sharing.
These are lovely:-)
Lovely rendition!

Loved your new banner dithi! & I simply adore this new parrot painting! The signage on top looks great.
Kate: Thank you very much for the suggestion, however, I am afraid it won't be possible for me to take part in an exchange right now.
Vineeta: It was high time I changed the banner, my work has moved on you know. Have been playing with photoshop and though I am not super satisfied with this one, it will do for a while.
