You can commission custom art through galleria Gila's eBay store, and you get things like this! A gorgeous rendering of the late, great, beloved Oliver! And just in time for Christmas!

I had to crop it to keep the album from rotating it sideways.

It's gorgeous! What a beautiful portrait of a wonderful companion.
 
My pleasure! So happy you like!

Okay, I understand much better now! There is an artist and a scientist locked-up inside your head with a Rickeybird yelling in your ear! It all makes sense!

I am certain you would be very impressed with my stick figures, NOT!

Love your work!

Steven,
 
Thank you so much, Steven!
Do you know, I have never painted a Rickeybird? One's enough...
 
Wow! Lovely!

Wow, that is exceptionally beautiful and stunning from the POV of subject and execution. Has a rich textured appearance on the monitor, can only imagine the effect irl.

Gail, you are incredibly talented!!

That is an outstanding parrot portrait. :)

It really is. You have to see it in person...the head doesn't just look textured, it looks three dimensional. The eye is especially real! It's closer to having Oliver back in front of us than any if the photos of him. Photos are all we have, as he died this spring, so it is a real gift to be able to keep the memory bright. Gail is very talented, and once she finishes one more painting for me you can put your order in!
 
Beautifully done. What was it painted on?

It's a multimedia work on canvas, and the canvas is painted all the way to the edge so it can hang as is or be framed.
