11"x15" watercolor on 140lb arches paper
This painting has been on my easel for some time. It started with just the lobster buoys (from a photo I took in Cape Cod). I was drawn to all the shapes and colors. As I pondered over the drawing I realized it needed a living character. I added the seagull. It was a challenge for me, and that is what I needed. I really tested my watercolor skills on this one. I stuck to the traditional watercolor painting technique and used no white paint. this project has taught me to have patience, and to know things will eventually work out. I also have a wonderfully talented son who I can call to help critique. I'm pretty happy with the results. Looking forward to spring and summer.
