Scarlet Macaw



Papagayo-watercolour on paper circa 2006 George Roberts





I painted this in the afternoon and by 11.30pm. that night, I was inebriated  and as a consequence fell in the bath and became stuck.  I remember that I was in Fuerteventura with Toot but I cant remember: the exact year or month, the name of the hotel or why I chose to paint a scarlet macaw a bird not native to the Canary Isles. "Who's a silly boy then"
