About the Artwork:
“Pink Cheeked Parrot” is a delightfully original 3D abstract art piece inspired by the vibrant colours and textures of the pink-cheeked parrot bird and the traditional Juju hat.
Juju hats originate from Africa and are traditionally worn during tribal ceremonies as decorative headpieces. They symbolize wealth and prosperity.
Feathers themselves carry powerful symbolic meaning—often associated with spiritual evolution and the journey to a higher plane:
Yellow feathers represent joy and hope
Pink feathers symbolize love, compassion, and tenderness. They are connected to the heart chakra, encouraging emotional healing, self-love, and harmonious relationships.
Materials & Technique:
This piece is composed of hundreds of individually crafted, hand-cut, and hand-painted paper feathers, each created using high-quality multimedia paper and premium acrylic paints.
The feathers are carefully layered onto a professional-grade white canvas, creating a rich and dimensional 3D collage. Unlike traditional framed artworks behind glass or Perspex, this piece is open and tactile—you can see and feel its textures and depth.
From a distance, the artwork may appear like a flat painting or print, but as you approach, the intricate 3D elements and textures become vividly clear.
The canvas is first primed with white gesso, followed by multiple layers of pure white acrylic paint to ensure a bright and clean background. The completed piece is then sealed with several coats of MICADOR matte artist spray, an invisible protective coating that provides a permanent barrier against dirt, moisture, salt, and stains.
PLEASE NOTE:
Colours may vary slightly depending on screen settings, mobile devices, or tablets.
All pieces are original, handmade, and one of a kind.
