Available at the Davis Gallery - click for information 

This spring I was commissioned to paint on a private ranch, north of Austin. The final piece will be a gift to the patriarch of a kind and thoughtful family! It's always an honor to be part of projects like this one. I will share more details on process and the final piece later, but the piece above was one of the small pieces I did for consideration. One of my favorites!

Hidden Egret

And I do believe that she can stand still enough, for long enough, to catch a little breakfast. Of course for us, her showy white feathers give her away completely. These beautiful white birds are total head turners. They get me every time.


If you like Egrets, here is another...

A Place in the Shade - Figures on Friday

A Place in the Sun, 6 x 8, oil on panel, L. Daniel © 2023
SOLD

It's summertime, and I have to say, this guy has it figured out. There is nothing quite like a patch of shade at the beach on a sunny day. As for inspiration? I loved the sky, I loved the dune, I loved the guy, I loved it all! :) 


HAPPIEST SUMMER!
