Estuary Pelican

Description

Acrylic on Canvas, 40cmx50cm

There is a satisfying strangeness to a pelican with it's enormous beak, so graceful in the water and yet ungainly and awkward on land. Initially I thought the flow painting I created for the water looked a little like the swirls and eddies where a river meets the sea. The pelican just seemed to fit there perfectly.
