Description
Two green herons occupy a marshy composition rendered in soft watercolor and hand-colored engraving, one perched alertly among cattails and aquatic plants while the other stretches upward toward a pale yellow flower. The artist captures their russet and olive plumage with meticulous naturalistic detail, anchoring the birds within a low horizon of grasses and water that grounds the scene in quiet observation. Precision-cut from thick, satin-finish paperboard and made to order, in 500 or 1,000 pieces. An afternoon spent building an independent artist's work.
