Original Oil Painting on Canvas of a Great Egret by Geoffrey C. Smith, 2025.
24" W x 30" H (not including the frame).
 
"Sunset Egret" reflects a quiet field observation in Okeechobee County, where the reflective waters of Nubbins Slough fill with the soft evening glow. The painting focuses on a great white egret standing calmly in still water, the Florida sunset moving across the sky. Gold, blue, and violet tones shift together in broad palette knife strokes, creating a heavy impasto texture that catches ambient light to bring a natural luminescence to the canvas.
 
The bright figure of the egret stands in crisp contrast to the darker water, capturing the exact moment the landscape settles into twilight. Serving as a serene focal point for the home, this piece brings the peaceful, atmospheric beauty of a Florida Everglades into any interior space.
