Painting - Watercolor & Ink On Ginwashi Rice Paper
Description
Watercolor batik on ginwashi rice paper, by Conni Schaftenaar.
We are fortunate most years to have a blue heron or two living in our area - we have a creek running through our farm in West Michigan, and neighboring farms have farm ponds, so there's great habitat for them. It is awesome (and a little frightening!) to have one take flight out of our creek when driving over the bridge - suddenly this huge bird is rising up, casting a big shadow - very cool to see! I never, of course, have a camera ready when that happens!
August 2022, this piece is sold out of a local exhibit and will soon be in a new home!
