How I love the sea gulls. This one is mounted on 20 x 24" stretcher bars. I played with an image in Photoshop Elements and created applique pieces from that. I sure enjoy the process - one that I've used in "The Ballerina",
Blue Heron, and Silent Charlie. I take the image, erase the background, go into filter and select artist:cutout and play with the numbers. I have a portrait of my son in the works - not too happy with the lips and eyes, so more work to see if I can fix the problem. If not, I'll start from scratch.
I've sent the weekend experimenting with gelatin monoprinting again. I am pleased with some of my results, others not so. But isn't that part of the learning curve!? I'll upload my favorites soon.

Loverly boid!
Like your positive attitude as well as your art!
Very nice! I really love the texture of the background.
This is very textural and looks amazing. The water appears liquid. Happy creating...
Great gull!
I can almost hear this gull laughing! I love anything to do with the shore but especially the birds (and more especially Black Skimmers) And I also love the textural background. This is a wonderful piece.
