“California’s Pacific Ocean coastline is dotted with sloughs and estuaries of the many rivers and creeks which wash out to the sea. These often brackish bodies of water provide habitat for a myriad of plants and creatures. Along the Pajaro Valley in Watsonville CA, are many sloughs. This location offered a view of the farmland beyond. It is home to many birds. (The Spanish name for bird is Pajaro.)” – mh

Description

“In this particular spot, I was attracted to the light on the trees as the sun set to the west, casting shadows and streaks of warm light. I included a blue heron in the painting, one of my favorites among the graceful birds that inhabit the area.” – mh

This 12″ x 16″ original oil painting is on a canvas mounted board from Utrecht. It was initially painted by Michele Hausman plein air – on location. Final touches were achieved in her studio.

The painting support is a Utrecht Master’s canvas panel of Belgian linen, hand oiled. The three displayed frame options include a 3″ Gold wood frame with decorative corners, a 3.5″ Black frame with gold filet (inset), and a 3″ antique Silver frame (“antique” is the style of finish, not the age!)
