Manzanita Afternoon, Gambel's Quail
(2009)
Subject: Pointleaf Manzanita, Gambel's Quail, Tarantula Hawk Wasp Dimensions (inches): 18 x 24 Medium: transparent watercolor Description: This old manzanita grows between the house and studio. I often see a flock of quail rush across the open grasses to gather in its shade. The smooth, curved limbs with their curious stripes of gray and maroon make this a striking subject to paint in watercolor, as is the sun-dappled and spontaneous nature of the quail moving beneath their shelter. While they peck the ground, a tarantula hawk wasp also searches among the plant duff. The quail soon leave this camouflage and scurry across the grass towards other safe cover.
