Great effect, Carole, like the vibrant colours.

Brilliant colours, super picture.

Beautifully done, love the colours.

Great colours and wave action Carole, and also the way you've caught the gull. Well done

Carole you really do use pastels brilliantly, the colours are fantastic.

Exellent by all measures. I live by the ocean and your work is inspiring.

Like this a lot Carole, the breaking wave and the large seagull are particularly good.

Great colour and super sea gull Carole.

Beautiful pastel work, Carole, and lovely colours, especially the violet in the clouds.

That’s a great seagull Carole. Has he dropped the fish?

A great sense of movement, very well painted.

The sea, waves, gulls…an endlessly interesting subject, so well realised in this vibrant painting. So very, very good Carole.

Super job, I love that you captured the turbulence and fast action of the sea and gull.

I have noticed the increasing size of seagulls recently. They must be doing well from the fish and chip bins outside the fish restaurants. Some of them have a job waddling around, they are so big. I was inspired from an image on Pinterest, which drew my attention and inspired me to paint a similar image but with many changes. Soft pastels with pastel pencils o. Pastelmat 9” x 12”.
