Welcome to the King Parrot Watercolor Demonstration! This composition was originally created for a live demo on the Terracotta platform in 2024. Now that the embargo has been lifted, I’m excited to share the real-time recording of the original painting from that workshop.
All relevant resources— including a black-and-white outline, step-by-step photos, and the reference images I used—are linked in the description below.
Note: As with all my demo compositions on Tier #1, this recording does not include voice-over. Fully narrated tutorials with step-by-step guidance are available in Tier #2 and Tier #3, featuring a variety of bird and flower compositions, including hibiscus and various parrots.

NOTE: The majority of the composition can be painted using similar colors of your choice - I encourage you to experiment and use your favorite blues, greens or reds.
