So I’m not done with it yet but I made another piece with a #SpixsMacaw!

I made the initial art in a small sketchbook then printed out the line art in a bigger size & went over it in markers. I still need to glue everything down and cut out a branch and tbh I’m not 100% sure on the background yet

The blue macaw, also known as the Spix’s macaw, has made a remarkable comeback in Brazil after once being declared extinct in the wild.

Remeber the movie "Rio"? 🪶 The Spix's Macaw is a bird that's extinct in the wild since 2002 due to habitat loss and illegal trade.

Recent conservation programs try to release them to the wild again and so far the project looks promising 💙
