African Grey Artists

[particle77]

So I happened across this:

and it got me thinking(I'm sure this is a great way to end up with bird footprints all over my sofa, etc...). However, it seems like it might be fun too.

 

I'm wondering if there are any special safety concerns I need to consider, or would any non-toxic child safe water color, also be bird safe(since Earl is likely to taste just about anything he comes in contact with)

Earl the budding artist. He is fearless with color, I need to take lessons from him! That looks like you were both having a lot of fun. Congratulations for thinking of the health aspects but for continuing on with the mess he must have made too. I love how he looks holding the paintbrush
