Sandy Hokanson: RADIANCE - GREAT EGRET - (12 x 12 Framed Print)

In this original illustration titled "Radiance - Great Egret" by Sandy Hokanson, a luminous Great Egret stands at the edge of a marsh as the day comes to life under a beautiful pale yellow sky. This image is available as a note card, a signed 12" x 12" shrink-wrapped or framed print (black frame) or a 16" x 16" signed metal print. 

Poem on the back of note cards reads:

where
land and water meet
an egret stands

it's glowing radiance
touches my heart

today will be a
good day

Sandy: "For many years I painted in a realistic style using acrylics or watercolors.  Now I prefer the challenge of focusing less on every feather and more on creating a clean design of each bird." "Some of my finished works are created by making detailed drawing using permanent inks which are then scanned into my computer. Others are hand drawn directly into the computer using either a mouse or a special pen and pad.  Next I'll create a unique palette of colors to layer over the drawings.  Each color is a separate layer - which means some pieces can have up to 25 layers or more. The end result is a crisp, graphic illustration."
