The latest original regional marsh painting by this painter. A peaceful serene marsh scene depicting stark trees with the appearance of multi color leaves at their base. Look to the trunks and limbs to find the sky colors there too. The rock lined path takes you to the mid ground where you will find one white heron eying its meal in the marsh waters and two other birds in flight.
What this artist relishes painting is a distant luminous sky...sometimes subtle...sometimes more pronounced.....
