Stillness in Motion

oil on panel, 16" x 20

This is a work in progress, but because I'm using the indirect method to paint it, there needs to be time for each paint layer to dry before applying a layer of Liquin, then waiting for that to dry before adding more paint.  It's a process that requires patience, something I'm not too good at when it comes to painting.  This lovely creature is a little blue heron, whose breeding habitat is subtropical swamps.  The fanned back feathers signal its breeding status.
