Original artwork description:

While cliff walking in Cornwall and taking lunch at Dead Mans Cove, this Herring Gull squatted very close to us. Unlike other gulls who have dive bombed me for food, this bird patiently waited for us to finish. I was able to study it over lunch and wanted to pare back this painting to show only the essence of a gull.

Acrylic on canvas board, this painting has a base coat of burnt orange and consists of further opaque pigments with subsequent layers of colour washes. This building of the work gives it texture and controlled vibrance. It has one coat of Winsor & Newton Satin UV Varnish
