Blue Heron Minimal - Big Gulp

"Blue Heron Minimal - Big Gulp" by Patti Deters. This minimal drawing of a Great Blue Heron (Ardea herodias) shows him preparing to swallow an entire fish whole. You can see his neck is getting wider and the head of the fish is already on its way down! Herons generally eat their fish whole when it's still alive, the calcium and other nutrients provide excellent nourishment. This image is inspired from one of my own photographs and is hand drawn with a texture canvas as the background. There are several pieces in this series, some of which can be found at the links below.
