Birds of the Sea, by Melissa A. Torres, 3x3 acrylic and gel medium on canvas







I have been dreaming of the beach lately. Maybe because of all of the bad weather we have had. The beach has always seemed to bring me peace and calm.

This painting was created using lots of gel medium and acrylic paint. I used a palette knife. It was almost like icing a cake. A small brush was used to create the birds.

This was a nice break from the commission on which I am working.

Creating a new series to showcase
some images I took at FeatherFest 2015
in Galveston. 
 
My friend and I were there 4 days,
and it was overcast and rainy the whole time!
 
It made photography quite a challenge,
but all the birders seemed to 
still find the birds
they were looking for
during the big migrations
 through Texas.
