Materials used

Paper
arches coldpress block, 11 x 14 inches
(I am a brand ambassador for Arches Paper but have been using their products before I was)

Colors Used
Cobalt Teal
Cerulean Blue
Sap Green
Cascade Green
Cadmium Yellow
Burnt Sienna
Payne's Gray

Brushes
I am using brushes by the brand princeton
I would recommend a small round (3/0 - 2)
a medium (6 - 8)
and depending on how large you paint your macaw you may need a larger brush, larger brushes also help you paint looser/add more pigment at once
I used a 10 or 12 round brush
