Painted feathers

Did you paint these, or buy them somewhere?

@ChIkEn NuGrEt I paint them

@Merintia that’s amazing! What kind of paint did you use? Do you know what kind of feathers they are?

Wow!! The skill required to make these is really quite something, much harder than working on a larger scale, and yet the detail on the feathers and eyes is perfectly executed, and on an uneven surface! Amazing work, and incredibly beautiful as well - love the species choices, particularly the quetzal, which seems to be almost ideal for this kind of art.

Absolutely gorgeous

@ChIkEn NuGrEt Thanks! I use normal acrylic paint, the feathers are from female peacock, and domestic turkey (the one in the middle).

@amur leopard Thank you! Is all matter of practice . The quetzal was a must!

@Bosjesman Thanks!

I cant imagine how hard it must be to paint on a feather yet you create such beautiful paintings.

Very unusual and very good. You obviously have a unique talent!

@Ned @Terry Thomas Thank you both for your kind words!

I agree, these are stunning.
