Black Crowned Night Heron

I took the original photo at Slough Preserve in Fort Myers, FL years ago. Their name is black crowned, but their top feathers are blue…weird, huh?

I was going to do this one in just charcoal, but it evolved and really needed the blue feathers. So, pastel, PanPastel and pastel pencils.

As mentioned below, the online price does not include the frame. But, while it is on exhibition at Fort Myers Beach Art Gallery, their price includes the frame. You have to purchase in person.
