thank you Jeri, Richard still thinks my two little seagulls are too big, he's right but I'm learning. This painting was done a year ago, my first was with acrylic paints. Richard gave me a few tips and then i decided to do it again in oils, this is the result. I reckon its pretty good and I've been lucky enough to sell it. Yep even went to America. Lately I have not done many workshops as I haven't been able to pay for them but I do miss them. I hope to get back into them soon. The current workshops on sunsets are great. I love to watch the lesson's, it's like magic watching him paint.

Hi Debbie! Thanks for liking my Portrait of Jesus yesterday. I painted that years ago when I was in college. It's been years since I got back to painting and just finished this painting you did here from Richard's lessons. It was hard to do! I like your colors so much here. Mine is bit more yellowy in the sandy beach areas. Also I couldn't seem to get that flying gull right so I painted him out! Yours looks great!
