SEAGULLS 35 images Created 18 Jun 2020
Each canvas in this collection captures the untamed spirit of seagulls, those coastal companions that embody freedom and playfulness. Walking along the shore, I’ve been mesmerized by their elegance in flight, the mischievous tilt of their heads, and the lively energy they bring to the horizon. These paintings are my way of channeling that boundless vitality into a form that invites viewers to experience it anew.
I’ve chosen acrylics for their vibrance, crafting each stroke to evoke the buoyant dance of wings against sea breezes. Pastel tones mirror the soft light of coastal mornings, while textured spatula techniques lend depth and motion to their graceful arcs through the sky. Layer upon layer, I sought to render not just a scene, but a moment—one that whispers of nostalgia, of carefree afternoons spent chasing waves and watching seabirds play.
It’s my hope that these works awaken something deeply human within us all. For the adults, a childlike wonder that takes them back to simpler times on the sand; for the children, a spark of curiosity and joy. This collection isn’t just about seagulls—it’s about the shared moments of awe they inspire, drawing us together in the beauty of a fleeting seaside memory.
