This is a scene from a hot, summer day in coastal Florida.  I like to sneak around in my Kayak, taking pictures and sketching compositions or colors.  The birds are Ibis, one of my favorites.  I love the way the breeze can ruffle their feathers.  Hopefully, I caught that in this painting.

This is an oil painting on a linen panel.  It is priced unframed; the framed picture is just to show possibilities.  However, at 20” x 24” the picture is a standard frame size so if a buyer wished to save a significant amount from the cost of a custom frame, they could buy a ready-made frame for it.

I used the highest quality materials on this; Williamsburg, handmade oils – packed with pigments and no fillers - on a fine Belgian linen.  I coat the panel with a protective barrier seal that will prevent it from degrading the cloth.  A panel is superior to a stretched canvas because it will not stretch and shrink with changes in temperature & humidity.  This work should last generations.

Thank you for your interest in my art.
