Seaside feast

Being mobbed by seagulls while eating our delicious meal at the beach is something most Australians are familiar with. This painting depicts me coming back from the toilet after enjoying my fish and chips and a bottle of beer alone at Sandbar Beach Cafe in St Kilda, Melbourne. I'm glad they didn't move while I was still sitting there.
As for the picture, to exaggerate the drama, I added a lot of seagulls to highlight the atmosphere of being besieged and robbed. At the same time, I also tried my best to show the weather with strong sea wind at that time, such as the waves, and the seagulls to be hovering in the air with the help of the wind.

I am a full-time landscape architect, who enjoys to record the things around me through painting. My paintings are full of life and rich in stories. Emphasis on light and shadow, whether it is hot midsummer or evening sunset, light and shadow is a sharp tool to capture time. My pictures have a degree of relaxation, with both a loose and relaxed "stage" (background) and fine and delicate "actors" (foreground). I like to capture the breath of life, whether it is the workers in the narrow alleys taking a break and smoking a cigarette, or the people who are lazy on the beach, or the people chatting in the park, or the people exploring in the wild forest and mountain streams, I like to record these bits and pieces.
