16 × 21 in | Mixed Media on Brushed Metal | | Original Work
This radiant soul, affectionately titled Mr. Charming, was captured not with a lens, but with intention — to reflect charisma, color, and the bold spirit of nature in full expression. Created as a one-of-one mixed media piece on brushed metal, he’s layered with multiple ink techniques and hand-finished detail, then sealed beneath a high-gloss resin for lasting brilliance.
There’s something about parrots that always captivated me — their unapologetic beauty, their confident posture, their uncanny way of stealing the spotlight. This particular fellow had presence. And charm. That kind of energy that says, “Yes, I know you’re watching.” He’s vibrant, magnetic, and alive — a burst of personality frozen in mid-moment.
The brushed metal base offers a subtle shimmer that shifts with light, giving him depth and movement even while still. And though his colors sing, there’s more here than flash — there’s connection. He looks back.
Mr. Charming was never meant to be quiet — he was meant to be noticed.
