Such a beautiful quiet morning in the Marshes, some of the American White Ibis are quietly eating while others are off to ride the wings of the morning. My inspiration for painting this picture was to capture the beauty and stillness of the marshes. We took a trip back in December to Hilton Head Island and visited the Pinckney National Wildlife Refuge. The birds captured my eye with there long curve beak, long legs and black tipped wings. They forging behavior is probing with its beak to find prey in the shallow waters.
My painting reminds me of a scripture Psalms 139:9-10 (NLT) If I ride the wings of the morning, if I dwell by the furthest oceans, even there your hand will guide me, and your strength will support me.
God is always there!
My goal is to bring beauty from my heart into your homes. Have a wonderful day, Diane
