Gull in the Bay of Islands, NZ


It took ages to finish this. It is on a half sheet of Arches, painted from the photograph I took on holiday.

There should be a little more shadow on the boat, the post and the gull, I think. The trees and the water turned out really well IMHO.

Feedback from college was that there should be more of the sky and the trees reflected in the water. Also the boat competes with the gull as the main subject.
