Western Sandpiper giclee reproduction of original 8 x 10 colored pencil artwork by wildlife artist Heather Mitchell, based on a photograph taken on the beach in Pensacola, Florida. Reproductions of this drawing are also available as prints or greeting cards. Part of the Gulf Coast Wildlife series, featuring drawings of shorebirds such as sandpipers, herons, and pelicans.

Soft earthtones of sand, whites and browns accent the feathers, both blend and contrast with the sand background. The sandpiper is a tiny shorebird which gathers food along the edge of the surf, running back and forth quickly as the waves break and recede.

This original drawing was created on pastel paper, and comes ready to mat and frame to match your decor. For more artwork by Heather Mitchell, visit http://www.HeatherMitchellDraws.artfire.com. Like HeatherMitchellDraws on facebook to follow works in progress.
