The Birds
7"X5" Oil on board
As the lakers pass through the canal they are followed by a flock of hungry gulls. The trees are at that point where they look just as if they have had a dry brush of yellow green dragged across them, only a few more days and they will be in full leaf.
I switched back to oils for this one. No particular reason really, just wanted a change. It would probably have been easier with acrylics as there was no blending required to speak of, and quite a lot of light over dark and dark over light. It might be a good idea to use a little more logic in my decision making
Lovely painting. I really enjoy watching gulls and their antics and you have captured them perfectly here. I like the way you used bits of light to make the gulls stand out against the sky and also to show the light through the trees.
