Blue Sky Gull 8"x8"

I was trying to think up a name for this painting when I laughingly told my guy maybe I should just call it blue sky bird head. He tilted his head and said, yeah I like that. So.... then I thought maybe not.

Chillin' 6"x8"

I like the idea of a gull just chillin' at the beach. Maybe he has friends he's waiting for. Maybe he should spring for some french fries! I like the vastness of the beach with the one gull enjoying it.

Stepping 8"x8" (Revised)


I had a lot of fun with this painting. I liked the idea of the gull stepping along the beach with the sky and ocean as a back drop, the wind ruffling the feathers.

Going Home 6"x8"

I don't know why but, when I look at this, it makes me a little sad. I cannot explain why. I had fun with the sky though.

How You Doin? 7"x5" SOLD

We saw this guy from the window of a restaurant situated on the bay in Port Isabel, Tx. He had so much personality in his stance I couldn't help but paint him. By the way, if you ever get to Port Isabel, Tx, try to go to Pelican station. The food is incredible and the view wonderful. This painting is sold!

Bird's Eye View 5"x7"

My niece had such fun taking close up photos of the gulls, I can't help but use them. It was also a lot of fun.

Not Talking To You 6"x8"

This little guy was sitting in the shop when his owner brought back lunch. After a while, when it became obvious to him she was not going to share, he turned his back on all of us. I think he was very disappointed. Poor little guy.
