"Beach Bill"

Meet my friend Bill,
Bill is a happy go lucky gull that lives in Estero Beach Florida. Bill is always hanging around the pier looking for hand outs...:D
Bill's portrait has an applied textured oil canvas, followed by a plastic wrap at 25 percent intensity...the plastic wrap helps bring out the sunny warm feel of the beach...:cool:

Love the texture Gus !!! The changes in the bg does it for me !!!! Excellent !!!

You have so many friends Gus:), I like your treatment and especially the canvas texture. Wasn't too sure about the plastic wrap but it does simulate the heat waves you can see rising up on a hot day. Nice comp and colours. TX again for the detailed 'splaining......:)

Gus, I like the textured BG, The gulls beak is great!!
