Contemporary Painting of a Great White Egret

Great Egrets are a favorite subject. I love their beautiful white plumage and graceful movements. This painting was a bit of a departure for me and a direction I feel myself moving in. It has a great deal of energy and spontaneity. There is a subtle abstract feel to it without a full departure from the representational aspects that I love.
