Their wings are real parrots feathers attached to the canvas. The feathers are from happy living parrots of my friend Carmel, she just collected them for me from the bottom of their cage.
Thanks to:
satrug for the idea with the feathers

Critique request by Traditional-Media:
These two parrots seem in love. Love their facial expression like theres nothing else in the world that matters.
Your paintings skills are awesome. To start critiquing this piece, I had to go through your gallery, trying to find other similar works, to know whats your painting style. The background seems really appropriate. The big problems here, in my point of view, is that theirs wings are to small, and the whole painting seems a little blurry. The idea of having real feathers is great, but that they are not in proportion with the parrots. Makes them look like penguins, in the way they're fat and cant fly XD.
As far as the rest, as I said before, they are well colored. Love the reds, greens, whites and blues. They seem in pace and well achieved.
Keep up the good work, and keep submitting

this is so cute! it is really well drawn, the lighting and shading is great, there is emotion in the parrots' eyes and the feathers really top off the piece nicely by adding a creative edge to it. well done!

What a lovely painting! (My parents had a pair of them, too. for 18 years. So I love this birds as I grew up with them.)
The idea with the real feathers is really good. It took me a while to notice them

This is very adorable I love their expressions! Though it's a bit weird you'd use budgie tail feathers to illustrate lovebird wing feathers, but that's a minor detail

Thank you! I know you are right about the feathers but these were the best option because of their shape and natural color, so I decided to use them anyway.

Awwh that's so sweet! I really like how you've only put colors on the two parrots while background is grey! Very nice work
