Description
There is a rock where we tend to visually measure the river's water table. Most days we say things like, "the water's high today." Or, "the water sure is low."
We noticed this year though, the pelican's preferred to congregate there and use it as "their" rock. On cold days they would use each others body heat to keep warm. Once I counted seventeen! You would wonder how they could all fit!
For the sake of simplicity for this painting however, and because they each showed a different unique pose, I captured three pelicans from separate photo's and collaged them into one. I did this because not only were three enough on canvas, but because three pelicans and three cat tails also makes a good title for this painting as... 3's Company.
Many thanks to the following groups for their recognition: 1000 Views, Water Forms, First Friday Gallery, Natures Wonders Paintings, Wildlife, A Birding Group - Wings, Created by My Hands, Animal Paintings, Footprints of Audubon, World Landscape Paintings, and Painting the Old Way
