Artist Comments
"Seagulls are often depicted from a distance in paintings, flapping in the sky, or gathered on a shore," says artist Catherine McCargar. In this piece, Catherine delightfully takes an up-close and personal look at this avian friend. She channels the familiar bird surveying the Pacific Coast off the shores of San Francisco where she lives. Her skillful watercolor technique brings a relaxed quality to this maritime composition.
About the Artist
Impressionist Catherine McCargar expresses her deep admiration of nature through landscape paintings of Northern California. While she is well-versed in a range of media, her preferred medium for painting is watercolor. The fluidity of the paint allows her to capture the muted undertones and the fleeting light found in the natural world. While the backgrounds of her paintings are impressionistic, the foregrounds of her paintings are often highly detailed, showcasing her technical mastery over her medium.
