#36: Gulls

A 4-panel mixed-media seagull montage. On 12x16 canvas panels I had prepped a long time back with the background in acrylics and oils. I finally finished them tonight (as I was watching the Oscars) by sketching on them with oil-based Sharpie paint markers I found on sale at Home Depot.

I have no idea anymore what type of gulls these are supposed to be, as I was using a sketch of a photograph I've since lost. They were probably Bonaparte Gulls from California. There are few things more beautiful in this world than a flock of seagulls taking off in a flurry of white from a wet beach into the blue sky.
