You may have heard of toucans, but have you ever seen the Spot-billed Toucanet (Selenidera maculirostris)? This species inhabits forests throughout Central and South America, including parts of Argentina and Brazil. It’s often seen in pairs or small groups foraging for fruit. In addition to the signature spots on its bill, it has dark spots around its pupils; this gives off the illusion of horizontal pupils. Reddish-brown plumage on the head is a telltale sign of a female. Males have black plumage instead.

The constant urge to go find the next best thing - being purposeless in the pursuit of finding your next purpose. This is a vicious cycle - I hope to break away from this but somewhere this is what feeds my mind.

My mind no longer finds solace in serenity or stillness in the present.

Gotta walk before you can run! Getting back into the studio is always an exercise in pacing yourself... By doing fun, stupid paintings 😜

i think of this image approximately every day of my life
