Winter Swan - Vancouver Island

This 2' x 3' canvas is based on a photo by Jim Murray who is another outstanding photographer in Craig Bay, our community within Parksville. That's new-fallen snow on the bank behind the Trumpeter Swan which is coping with ice on a neighbourhood pond. Ice and snow are very rare here so this is likely a new experience for this swan. This is a big painting, fitting for a waterfowl with a wingspan of six to eight feet.
