Excerpt from artist’s Impact Statement: "I depicted Buell standing in the dunes taking a picture of three herons. I wanted my artwork to highlight the beauty of the landscape, and therefore I showed the dunes in the foreground and the lakes in the background. To capture the vivid life of the dunes, I used vibrant green, orange, and brown tones."
