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. At home in a naturalist's study or a bird lover's sanctuary. A Baltic birch top with a beveled edge and satin finish, the artwork printed across it, made to order on steel legs in black or gold. A working piece of furniture that earns its place as an independent artist's work.
