"On a gray overcast day, a �seagull and pelican� stand contemplating their next moves."
Artist Comments: "When the brown pelicans migrate through Washington State, they are a wondrous sight on the beach. Sometimes they are gathered in flocks and sometimes solitary. My research revealed that gulls will pester a pelican when it is feeding until it gives up it�s catch to the raucus seagull. In this pastel on Canson Mi-Teintes paper, I focused on the tension between these two birds. The cool gray of the scene sets off the warm tones in the faces and feet of the �seagull and pelican�.�
