Flying with a Friend


Pastel on gatorfoam - 10x8

SOLD

I have done several sketches and reference photos of this particular flight of sea gulls.  The tide was out, but the foam was spectacular from the surf.

I am intrigued by sea gulls.  For them the air is a friend and a playground where they fly with easy mastery of their element.

This painting was done on self-sanded gatorfoam.
