This little seagull is now for sale has now sold on Etsy. I took some more photographs and I’m a lot happier with the colours this time around (click here to see my original post).
I’m thinking of making this a series with different background colours and canvas sizes ― but there are so many other painting projects waiting in the wings (so to speak), it may be a while before the next seagull gets off the ground (sorry, I really need to get out more).
This morning’s offering is not my usual Shoot it, Sketch it because I didn’t take the photograph that inspired the painting (which is why I haven’t posted it) ― I did, of course, obtain permission to use the photo for the commission. And as much as I love mountains, this time it’s all about the trig station!

This collection of images was inspired by Amber Rousse’s post which catalogues some of her favourite colour combinations in the photographs she’s taken. Too good an idea not to investigate, I decided to extract the colours that prompted me to take some of my own photos.
I’ve become rather fond of this little bird. I first sketched him a year ago (click on the photo to visit the original blog post). As you can see, I’ve played around with the colours a bit. I’ll be offering it for sale after I’ve finished the sides and given it a couple of coats of varnish…
