How Would You Like Cockatoo in Texture?

After a long long absence from painting, today I manage to get myself together and putting my ideas down on canvases, Cockatoo.. what do you think? 

We have been getting Cockatoos, Rosellas and other beautiful birds in our garden during this Autumn, and I can't get it away from my mind. hahaa..  

Cockatoo .. greeting "Hello"  :) 

And, I am so much in love with the little garden I have here at where we stay now. I do the sketches on the deck overlooking the yard and lane leading to IGA supermarket on the other side of the road. 

Today we have nice cooling breeze with beautiful sunshine .. that makes everyone cheerful and creative!

My afternoon at Evatt, ACT

My landlord, Steeve, made us a bird house. Thanks Steeve! 

This is awesome, I couldn't get tired of watching all these Crimson Rosella flying around and enjoy the bird seeds that I set out for them in the bird house. Sometime, I have the King Parrots too. Feel that I am so near to nature. 

I am so grateful that we took the plunge and made the move. And, here we are, in a different land started a new life. 

.. but I really miss my family back home.
