Painting of a Cockatoo in blue.
I'm inspired by patterns and lines especially the work of Australian artist Reg Mombassa and Ken Done and the late Indigenous artists Ginger Riley. I love the simple line work and naive style of these artist.
I wanted to paint a black cockatoo but I used blue paint instead. I've also painted this like totem. I feel somehow if I was going to have a totem animal I would choose the black Cockatoo.
