A richly textured oil painting of a great blue heron standing in shallow marsh water, one leg lifted mid-step. Layered brushstrokes of slate blue and grey build the feathers, while reeds and water glow in greens and warm ochres. Visible paint surface and soft side light give depth and calm to this quiet wetland moment.
