Chasing Seagulls at Stearns Wharf

A girl chasing gulls on the beach in Santa Barbara in front of the Wharf, in reflective afternoon light. At 130 years of age, Stearns wharf is more beautiful than ever. It is still built of aged wood and has weathered wars, fires and earthquakes. Palette knife painting directly on the canvas, in combination with a brush, because combining heavy texture that only a knife can create with applied brush transparent paint gives my work a greater feeling of depth and creates an amazing visual effect. Painted on 3/4'' thick gallery wrapped canvas using highest quality artist oils. Painting continues around the sides making framing optional. This painting would make a great addition to any art collection.
