Departure Lounge (RSPB Saltholme)

Comments

Like it Emma. It has the atmosphere of Saltholme with distant view of the Transporter. Nicely understated.

I like this Emma and not just because that's the Middlesbrough Tranny in the background lol, love the flock of birds and the ones perched on the bench.

This is a great painting, subtle and sympathetic. Love the touch of humour in the title!

Something about Saltholme reminds me, in a good way, of airports - perhaps the open, flat landscape or the constant sense of arriving and departing, movement everywhere - I'm guessing the terns are waiting to take off whilst the geese are coming in to land. Watercolour on Arches Not paper; Crimson alizarin, cobalt blue and yellow ochre, 18" X 12".
