Description

Ultrafractal 4.02 Thought it was time for a little color, seeing as how Spring has sprung - in the Northern hemisphere at least. Reckon our Aussie friends are starting to have Fall, now? Anyhoo, the colors on this spiral remind me of a big red macaw they had at a small, privately owned, zoo in town back in the 70's-80's called Houser's Zoo. Just a VERY small place and you could feed all the animals so we'd bring loaves of bread and big bags of walnuts for the elephant they had. The macaw's claim to fame was that, with such close quarters with the visitors who were young and boisterous, the bird spoke but most of his words were cuss words. That bird knew words even I hadn't heard b4! lol Seriously, he cussed a blue streak and we all got a real kick out of him. I think his name was Mel. So, except for the blue I changed to green so's I could try to make the funky looking leaf, these are the colors of the feathers ol' Mel sported. Thanks for stopping by - Polly wanna cracker? lol Rick

...and happy spring to you too! Love the bold happy colors. The pinks and yellows work well and I especially like your bottom right leaf. That looks very real. Is that macaw pink or shrimp pink? :)))
