Sigmund the Egret

from £1,100.00

An acrylic painting on canvas .This large painting of an egret measures 150cm wide.

I painted the egret on a long horizontal canvas to maximize the flying pose; all the canvas is taken up with the bird. I have made the background mottled, to make it seem like the sky.

It is a calm painting, I have used soft colours. The painting is a celebration of flight, there are no hidden messages, just pure joy.

I paint a lot of birds, but was very taken with the shape of the egret in flight. The beauty of the enormous wing span, and the ergonomic design of the feet I found particularly pleasing.
