It's not a good thing to discover that feathers are very difficult things to paint this early into a parrot painting. Today I've spent a long time trying to really understand how they work. You can't successfully simplify until you truly understand it. I think I'm beginning to, but I am still struggling with the overall shape of his head.

Looking good to me, Sarah.............Are you overthinking it? We do that to ourselves sometimes (probably more than we should).
