Laguna Madre Series from Jessica Monroe Fine Art

Mottled Duck on Birch captures the quiet elegance of a coastal duck in calm, reflective waters. Each feather is rendered with fine precision, while the natural texture of the birch panel becomes an active part of the image—its wood grain transforming into soft ripples of light and water. The painting merges realism and abstraction, embodying the serene balance between detail and atmosphere that defines Monroe’s Laguna Madre Series.
