He is the author of “How-To”articles in Wildfowl Carving Magazine as well as a book featuring his carving and painting style titled American Goldfinch 2004. In 2007 Victor was selected by his peers to be the Featured Artist at the highly acclaimed Waterfowl Festival, held annually in Easton, Maryland. For the event, Paroyan created a Scarlet Macaw, which was the signature art piece of the show and his greatest accomplishment to date. Taking over two years to complete, the sculpture entailed a host of artistic skills and knowledge.

“I am inspired by the essence of nature’s wildfowl. My ultimate goal is to capture the unique character of each species in my art.”
