Dragonfly in the Cattails #



I posted a field sketch of cattails recently and used it at inspiration for this little painting. I think I lost some of the spontaneity of the first painting, but did come up with a more finished piece. I purposely picked a simple dragonfly so it wouldn't steal too much attention from the cattails.

Critiquing welcome!

  2. This is so photorealistic Elva that I had to look three times before I saw that subtle dragonfly. Awesome!!
