Seagull 2 for Forge2 show


As a warm-up to the next painting 'I do like to be beside the seaside’, I painted this seagull for the same Forge2 show (see below), last night. The original ‘Whitstable Harbour Seagull’ sold at The Corner Gallery, Carshalton Beeches, Surrey, a couple of weeks ago and the curator of the upcoming show at Forge2, asked me to paint another. Hope you like it Clare! Watercolour and wax (vapour trail, feathers) on Langton 300gm rough watercolour paper. Never one to produce a facsimile of the original (that would be far too dull), I introduced a pair of gulls in the background of this one too. See it on show at forge2.com SOLD (Horsebridge, 6 Nov 09).
