This
week’s painting, Snowy Egret, 8”x13” on 300 lb. watercolor paper, captures an egret
in all its splendor focused on catching its next meal. For more information on purchasing or commissioning a painting as well as upcoming events and exhibits, check out my website at www.wildriverarts.com

Great Egret!
In the summertime, one
of my favorite sights on ponds and lakes in this area is the Great Egret. Snowy
white, it’s easy to spot – even from a distance – and it signals to me that the
waterway is healthy and the fishing is good! This was painted with permission
from the photographer, Lonnie Lovness. She takes amazing pictures, and I believe
this one was shot while kayaking on the Upper St. Croix River. Designated as a
National Scenic River, the St. Croix provides incredible scenery and a rich
habitat for a wide variety of wildlife and birds.
