This watercolor titled "The Splash" captures the instant a wading bird lifts from the water, wings fully extended as ripples radiate outward below. Cool layers of blue, gray, and teal swirl across the surface, echoing the motion of the bird and the energy of the moment. Flecks of white suggest splashes of water and suspended droplets, freezing the scene in time. I was drawn to the contrast between the bird’s graceful control and the turbulence it leaves behind—an expression of motion, balance, and the quiet power of nature in transition.
8.5x11", is matted in white to 12x16" and will be carefully packaged and shipped flat.
