egret - acrylic paintings

Egret - Work in Progress. This is a 5 x 7 acrylic I am working on. A very dark background (deep in the woods) and absolutely still water. I've just sketched in the egret and reflection
This is a 2.5" x 3.5" egret in full mating feathers. I am fascinated by the male plumage during mating season. I wasn't aware of the beauty of these birds until a fellow artist brought it to my attention. Thanks Patricia...you are always such a source of inspiration.

S/he is gorgeous. The unfinished one is going to be beautiful too.
