"Blue Heron on Liberty Bay" 16x8 oil on panel   $800

 I watched one of these Herons catch an ell under a rock. He stabbed it a few times till it stopped squirming, washed it off flipped it up and swallowed it whole. They are pretty impressive hunters with a lot of patience!  Also beautiful birds that are ubiquitous around here. I have been wanting to paint one for awhile.  

You can view this original painting at the Front Street Gallery in Poulsbo through March!
