Lurking


Acrylic, 11"x31", on 1-5/8" deep gallery wrapped canvas (#2209)
The subject was based on several pictures of egrets I took at Jordan Lake. The dimension of the canvas posed a challenge. I chose this composition from a few sketches I made. While the focus is on the left side of the painting,  the right side, based on less-is-more concept, is a view of Jordan Lake wrapped in thick fog.
