The Great Egret - Jamaica

Acrylic on canvas (24"x18")

"I am energized painting birds, capturing their character, volume and context. This Great Egret was prowling the swamp/woods that our morning walking path encircled. One long step after another this elegant bird took little notice of us, peering through the branches for its next hunting spot. The titanium white on the egret jumps out in juxtaposition to the fluorescent greens used in the background. "
