Seagull on the Beach

'The Beach Friend' 9x12 pastel
Thank you to my friend Carol for the wonderful sea gull photo I used for this painting. I love to paint the gulls and when I saw her photo I knew I wanted to paint this guy. Hopefully I will get out and paint with Jayne tomorrow. We both want some more plein air practice and I want to try out my new cart. I am hoping it might work to haul my stuff on my Creighton Island trip this Fall. I'll plan to post some photos of my set up tomorrow.

I love these animal paintings! In this painting you have managed to paint the soft light as well as in Seagulls overhead. I really like that softness!

BTW, thank you for the hint about Wetcanvas. I registered and even posted a sketch there! And that gatorboard... I tried that but the underpainting didn`t work out, it was a mess :) I did something wrong, I have to try again and pay more attention to it.

Your blog has inspired me a lot! Thanks for it :)
