PLOVER PAIR | CANVAS GICLEE | 12 x 16

These giclees are high quality, wrapped canvas.  These are reproductions made from high resolution 'captures' of Morgan Fisher's original fine artwork. 

These paintings are Inspired by the plovers, not only on the Sleeping Bear Dune National Lakeshore Park shorelines, but on ANY coastal shoreline in the world. These little birds are fun to observe as they move rapidly in the sand and water, racing around together and solo on their speedy little legs and camouflaging themselves openly amidst the grass and rocks. These mesmerizing, little prehistoric looking birds, so full of character, need protection on the shoreline. Let’s keep these little beauties safe by keeping our dogs on leashes and children tethered to our sides. Plover nests and eggs are too vulnerable and threatened. Let’s share the shoreline! Painting these little birds a larger-than-life size at times has been a part of Morgan’s focus in order to scream ‘pay attention to the lil guy!’

Morgan loves painting these birds for the pure joy of their prehistoric look and awkward proportions and their humorous rapid speed, as they race in perfect sync with the movement of the shore break. There’s something wonderful about their herd-like movement, those unique markings, and seeing it all from their low perspective—the beauty of their motion, tiny size, and colors set against the vast water, sky, rocks, and beach.

The high resolution images of the artwork are turned into museum quality, wrapped canvas prints, which are created on highest quality of archival materials, hand stretched over heavy duty bars, and coated with a protective UV varnish (protection from fading in sunlight). The gallery canvas wraps come wired and ready to hang!
