Great Egret Kids Hoodies

Scratch Where It Itches by Debra Martz What fun to have this Great Egret land on my back deck....and then do some preening and scratching. Made me think of the quote "Fill what's empty. Empty what's full. And scratch where it itches." by Alice Roosevelt Longworth. She was the only daughter of Theodore Roosevelt, the 26th President of the United States, and his first wife, Alice Hathaway Lee.

Morning with the Egrets Black and White by Debra Martz Egrets can often be found fishing from the manmade penisulas at the bottom of the spillway. There is one on the south and one on the north bank below the spillway which narrows the flow into the Salt Fork of the Arkansas River.

Great white heron in Shallotte

I might still break out some watercolors, but I need some supplies before I do that, so I may return to this in a couple weeks, but for now, I'm happy with the turnout, especially considering this was my first time attempting a Heron. I wasn't trying to copy the photo(credit to myself, as I encountered this gentle giant on a painting day at Ringling by the canal and managed to snap a couple of pictures. One of the most unforgettable moments I'd ever had at Ringling and I love it.) because, as my Illustration I professor used to tell us: "You're an artist, not a camera! Never be a slave to your reference." This was done on Strathemore Drawing paper with graphite. You can find the photo reference here: https://sta.sh/05cboyusjrz !
