Whatever Possessed Me?

Whatever possessed me to paint a parrot for today's oil study?  The color!  There aren't many excuses to use lime green and red when I paint a bird.  This is a thick-billed parrot which were once native to the southern part of Arizona.  Now their declining population is found in north west Mexico.
