Great Blue Heron
$125.00 – $1,370.00
When preparing to do this painting I decided to take advantage of the simple yet absolute beauty of the Heron itself. I wished to show its majesty, without hidden meaning and in its favored environment.
After, establishing the exact scene the Heron would inhabit, I set out to find the proper palette for an art piece that would portray such a graceful and fragile subject.
The search for my colors would ultimately lead me back to “Metamorphosis”, the painting I had done of my friend our famous Eco-hero Dr. David Suzuki. Ironically this piece held a full array of tints and tones necessary to represent the world of the Great Blue Heron. I noticed that mixed into the background scenery of the painting was all the colors of the Heron’s actual plumage.
Well doesn’t that make sense! I guess that, up until then, I had never really considered exactly why its coat of feathers was a powdery blue-gray. Even a day with the slightest touch of humidity would produce these colors in the distance. It was easy to see that the gentle blue and taupe of the Heron would undoubtedly melt into its surroundings, especially when it entered into areas of tall marsh grasses or fallen trees that hug the misty morning shores of small rivers and creeks.
In conclusion, the colors of the scenery are in many ways the same as the subject of the painting, which is one of nature’s very best camouflages.
