Egret
by Peter Grant - 18:03 on 05 February 2022
Last year I shared a stall with my daughter at PromArt at Grange-over-sands in Cumbria.
Lots of lovely people were very complimentary about my linocuts which made it well worth the trip!
About 2pm on each of the Sundays a Little Egret turned up on the foreshore. Normally found in mediterranean regions or at best the very South of England I was excited to see this lovely cousin of the Heron so far North. Even though it was at the very limit of the zoom on my camera I managed a photo of it.
After a lot of experimentation a new linocut was the result.
