"Strangler Fig"

     "Strangler Fig" reveals a majestic blue and gold macaw as it rests on a high branch in the heart of the tropical rainforest. It seems to be admiring the luxurious foliage that has grown over its tree like festive ornaments and precious jewels. Sal Salinero's vision is truly a poetic celebration of the generous beauty of this exotic paradise.

"Sea Grape Leaves and Oriole"

     "Sea Grape Leaves and Oriole" depicts a charming and delicate oriole perched on a branch of sea grape leaves. The yellow and black plumage of the bird contrasts beautifully against the rich and almost autumnal colors of the leaves. A swallowtail butterfly is approaching as if to be visiting the bird - and his ethereal presence brings a sense of peaceful serenity to the scene.

"Scarlet Macaw and Devil's Ivy"

     "Scarlet Macaw and Devil's Ivy" is a rare invitation to discover the most colorful king of the rainforest in its own habitat. The scarlet macaw - whose bright red plumage has always been a great source of inspiration to Sal Salinero - is once again depicted here with remarkable realism. It is seen among the highest branches in the canopy of the tropical rainforest, where it reigns in peace as the most extraordinary member of this colorful species.

"Hong Kong Orchids"

     "Hong Kong Orchids" catches a pair of blue and gold parrots in an intimate and playful game of love, as they are perched on the highest branch of an orchid tree. The crisp white blooms of the Hong Kong orchids contrast beautifully with the colorful plumage of the birds and the many shades of green of the vast tropical rainforest below.

"Cockatoo and Hong Kong Orchids"

     A nocturnal scene depicting a cockatoo, a tropical bird known for its fluffy and soft plumage, which Sal Salinero has painted with striking realism. It is perched on the highest branch of an orchid tree, and seems to be admiring the exquisite white orchids blooming next to it. The moon is full in the background, and its luminous presence transforms the ocean below into a sparkling pool of diamonds.
