Cranes in the Mist
Cranes in the Mist The graceful stature and stately movement of sand hill cranes belies their raucous report. I spotted a group on the lawn at Maura and Bill's house on a visit to them in Florida in pre-Covid days. Bill cultivated orchids in the niches and crotches of their trees, so I added a reference grouping on my painting, "Cranes in the Mist." Here is a phone pic of the noisy cranes on the lawn. In the painting I fabricated the mist.
