FEATHERED FRIEND

Here is my most recent painting..............A Great White Heron

inspired by a birthday vacation spent in one of my favorite towns, New Orleans. This is Audubon Park in the Garden District. A beautiful place with the biggest Live Oaks I have ever seen.


did I mention big!



the park is bordered on one side with stately homes...




and on the other, a peaceful lagoon.





past the bridge,






you will find "Bird Island".







the trees are alive with birds...








goofy ones...









manly ones...










and my favorite ....... the the Great White Heron. Just gorgeous............and the inspiration for my painting.
