Day 7...already? "Seagull"


"Seagull," - underpainting  8" x 8"
Oil on Masonite

So this is my post, it's not finished.
But there is often something magical about an underpainting.
Maybe it's something to do with the edges. The best finished paintings have the muscularity 
of nice thick paint with the gorgeous sensitivity of a thin wash.

Beautiful sense of light and brushwork!

Thank you for posting this and sharing your process a bit. Lovely underpainting, especially the brushwork in feathers.
