Black cockatoos are my absolute favourite birds, and these three “yellow-tails” were a commission for a local family who had a large wall which needed a stunningly large artwork to feature on it.
They also have a beautiful flowering Corymbia Calophylla tree in their yard, which they requested to be incorporated into the composition. As it turns out they have two sons and a daughter, and by mere coincidence, I painted two male cockatoos (they have the pink rimmed eyes) and one female (grey rimmed eyes). My clients now feel the cockatoos represent their own three “golden” children. One could say it was a very successful commission for all involved. Limited Edition Prints are available, and as always a percentage of sales goes to the Byron Bay Wildlife Hospital.
