Hunt Slonem’s vibrant composition captures six parrots perched against a luminous, deep-blue background, their forms rendered in his signature, impasto brushwork. Thick, expressive strokes of emerald, chartreuse, and teal bring the birds to life, while flashes of scarlet accent their crowns and tails. The textured surface catches light, adding a dynamic, almost sculptural quality to the paint. With rhythmic repetition and variations in posture, Slonem conveys both the individuality and communal harmony of his avian subjects. This work exemplifies his ability to merge bold color, tactile energy, and a sense of joyful reverence for the natural world into an iconic, collectible painting.
