A nice moment from earlier this month- a Bittern just not having quite enough white in its cryptic camo' to disappear successfully against snowy reeds. So here against the bullrushes it shows up as a warm shadow, just knocking out the whites of the snow when it moves.
The first attempt to paint it on a grand scale was the usual disaster- so the canvas on the easel has been hosed-down and returned to the rack to be recycled another day when orange is again in demand. Then I've had another shot on some orange card.
