Opinions needed

I'm interested in donating a painting for PDD research. I was wondering which of these you think would be best for that. The one of the hyacinth is 12"x24, the eclectus is 22"x22", the blue and gold 12"x12", and the Moluccan cockatoo is 16"x16".

Franciscus, you are just packed full with talent huh?

My personal favorite is the Eclectus couple, they look so happy and playful. To me they seem so innocent looking and carefree, truly appropriate for a PDD research donation.

Excellent idea! What a nice gesture!

My vote is for the M2 or the Eclectus! The Molluccan is just so beautiful and the E-couple look so loving...



btw... I still want to have you paint Tiki, I haven't forgotten, I just don't have much spare cash, and I feel like I've spent too much on the birds lately with Tiki's new cage and some supplements for Niki and a vet visit coming up. As soon as that all calms down, I won't feel guilty spending more $$, especially not on a beautiful painting!

The M2..he looks so innocent and loving...something in his eyes.....
that painting looks like the poster child for so many of the birds lost.....

Frank, I don't think you should donate the Ekkie pic, cuz' I keep waiting for someone to buy it for ME!! Seriously, they are all gorgeous, it's too hard to pick!

The E couple is my vote. They really do seem to be what this is all about don't they? A happy carefree couple of birds.

Set up a poll and then see which one gets the most votes.

Frank:

The more I see your stuff, the more impressed I get. You are just soooooo talented. I can't choose. Each one is so beautiful. However, I do agree that there is a sadness about the M2.

The expression on the face of the Hy looks like he might be asking for help. I vote for him.
