Haven't done any real art in decades. Decided I was feeling a little artistic yesterday and created this. Hope you enjoy.

This is mostly done with brush strokes and blending in Affinity photo 1.8. Haven't done any real art in dozens of years. I'm happy with how this turned out.

Went to the lake when spring weather started to set in. There were four of these guys hanging around me keeping the mosquitos at bay. They sat with me the entire time I was there occasionally flying over to the water to drink and coming back.

Hope you all enjoy. I love creating these. I have a solutions file if anyone needs it, but I'll refrain from posting it right away - unless the community would rather have it available.

Enjoy, and happy new year!

Looking forward to seeing more of lemmy's conures.

Saw the Juvenile post and felt it needed a companion post for an adult.

You might recognizer her from the community thumbnail.

One of my favorite photos.. I took this photo with a Pentax K-70 and the kit 18-135mm lens at 18mm f3.5 and a 30 second exposure.
