This particular blue heron and I played hide and seek for many years, him waiting until I slowly parted the bushes with my telephoto lens and then taking off at the last second before I could focus. Until, finally one day he was perched on this pair of pilings about 120 yards offshore. I think he was focused on a speed boat approaching from down river, so I was able to finally capture him. I named him "Blue" and he haunts the area with his mate to this day.
Available as a Handcrafted Custom Framed Print
The print itself is 10" x 16" and the frame dimensions are 13" x 19". The drawing printed on the mat board is a detail from my original pencil drawing titled, “Fishermen”, which is a panoramic view of the pilings that dot the Pend Oreille River. Atop these pilings, the black cormorants sit - the true fishermen of the Pendf Oreille. The handcrafted, custom frame is 2 species of wood, Black Walnut with Cherry insert.

All prints are available as a Handcrafted Custom Framed Print - I love custom orders!
Any print can be combined with a handcrafted, custom hardwood frame with or without a companion mat board.
Pictured are three styles of handcrafted moulding I currently produce, but I'm always open to new ideas and always working on my own new framing concepts.
Art Deco Mahogany: Any species of light colored wood with the rough bark left intact on the sides. I add Art Deco corner devices, and a high-gloss Mahogany finish. A unique contrast between the rough bark and the high-gloss finish for an intriguing presentation.
Art Deco Cherry w/Black Walnut: These frames are made from Cherry, which darkens over time, and uses Art Deco corner devices made of Black Walnut in varying arrangements.
Black Walnut: This Black Walnut moulding is clean, elegant and minimal, setting off the artwork nicely.
Although printed mat boards are one of my trademarks, the mat may also be clear of imagery and in its pristene condition.
Finally, I use anti-reflective, UV-resistent, museum-quality glass or acrylic to cover and protect my prints.
