Brown Pelican Seashore Bird Wildlife Painting

Brown Pelican Watercolor Painting

 

I just love watching this fabulous bird! It gracefully glides over the water, dives to catch a fish, then perches contentedly to digest its meal.

 

What a challenge to paint it, too! This time, I wanted to make the plumage realistic, but not show each feather. The light is important, showing the shadows without hiding the details is a bit tricky!

 

I hope that you enjoy this portrait of the Brown Pelican and will find the perfect spot in your home for it! Isn't he majestic?!

Egret Beach Bird Painting

Great White Egret

 

What a majestic, elegant bird this Great White Egret is! This huge shore bird is a dazzling sight with its magnificent white feathers and large wingspan. I love watching it hunt. The Great White Egret stands immobile or slowly wades through the wetlands waiting for the perfect moment. Suddenly, it strikes with its yellow bill a deadly jab impaling a fish.

 

This art print of my original watercolor painting is perfect for your seashore home décor or as a wonderful gift for the nature lover in your life!
