A Tribute in Paint, to Alex the Parrot

Shelley, Orli and Grrl have amply discussed the untimely death of Alex and the history of his relationship with Irene Pepperberg, so I will say nothing more than how much of an inspiration he was to my fiance. She has been working on a series of paintings depicting animals in famous experiments, and was immediately taken by Alex's charm.

Three cheers to Alex! You taught us much, and will be remembered.
