Patience by

Watercolour on 140 lb. Arches cold press paper.
This is a combination of positive (the egret) and negative ( the trees and reeds) painting. I used a fairly limited palette and tried to create a feeling of quiet anticipation as the bird soundlessly searches for food.

About bevmorgan

Painting is such an integral part of my personality and my life. I find much joy and satisfaction in the process, and if the results are pleasing then I am also gratified, but I must admit it is the process that intrigues me and sparks my creative juices.
I paint primarily in watercolour but love to experiment with other media, especially in combination with my watercolour. I would be honoured if you were inclined to take the time to browse through my work.
