Great Blue Heron Marsh Painting


Great Blue Heron in Marsh Painting 20x16

Great Blue Herons are one of my favorite coastal birds.  I see them frequently in my back yard by my lake.  Sometimes they are so tame that you can get up close and practically touch them. Some of the older birds seem to be use to photographers and seem to pose when you are pointing the camera at them!  This is a painting of a Great Blue Heron in  a grassy marsh.  The painting has beautiful warm gold and green grass up against the dark water and is very striking.  This work of art would make an elegant statement in any coastal inspired home.  Great Blue Herons are at home in many nature areas including marshes and beaches.  I have seen them along the beach on the West Coast on Sanibel Island, but  I've never seen one on an Atlantic Coast beach.  They can also be seen on inland wetlands and rivers.

John was focused on Chula and not the beautiful woman who rode by on the sunlit sidewalk next to a stream.  I knew when I took this photo, that I would capture that moment on a canvas one day.  I miss our little Chula.  She loved to go on trips with us.   I also painted this glistening waterlily painting based on a Florida marsh at sunset.   The carnival of colors are delightful and memorizing.  I am a big fan of Monet and can see his influence in the way I paint my waterlily paintings.  I remember visiting an art museum and admiring one of his waterlily paintings.  I asked the curator why the edges still had white  canvas ...

Water Lilies on a pond at sunset oil painting

"Twilight Pond" 24x36  Landscape Nature Oil Painting   Gallery Wrapped Canvas 1 3/8" (sides painted black) By: Amber Palomares, Fine Art Palm Beach Gardens Artist The sunset reflections and waterlilies are dancing with light in this coastal painting!   I am inspired by Monet and his impressionist style.  Like Monet, I did not include a horizon line.  The pink flowers are dazzling on the lily pads that are bidding the day farewell as the sun sets in this South Florida marsh.
