Pelicans by the sea

Original acrylic Artwork “Pelicans by the sea “ by Moira Briel

This artwork was painted on an acrylic pallet on a stretched canvas of 50.50 cm x 40.50cm with a depth of 1.5cm on a acrylic canvas and a protective coat of (gloss) varnish has been applied to seal the acrylic paints and ensure the work stays looking its best for a life time

Capture the serene beauty of coastal life with this original acrylic painting, "Pelicans by the Sea." Expertly rendered on a stretched canvas, the artwork showcases the striking black and white plumage of pelicans gathered on a jetty. The artist's realistic style brings to life the intricate details of their feathers and their characteristic massive bills, perhaps caught in a moment of catching a fish, with droplets of water glinting in the sun.

This medium-sized piece, protected by a gloss varnish, offers a timeless glimpse into the natural world. Imagine this captivating scene adorning your living room, bringing a touch of the ocean's tranquility and the unique charm of these magnificent water birds into your home.

I am an Australian based wildlife artist with 30 years of experience.

I was born in Zimbabwe and started my art career by studying under professional artists such as wildlife artist Francis Stoki in Zimbabwe and Donald Waters in Queensland Australia . I worked for a taxidermy in Zimbabwe for two years painting wildlife on a large scale for export overseas. One of my paintings sold to the governor of Beirut and the other to the vice president of Zimbabwe at the time.

I left Zimbabwe 17 years ago and now reside in Perth Western Australia. After retiring I finally have the opportunity to paint full time in my studio , something I always wanted to do.

I enjoy painting wildlife the most coming from Africa I find nothing better then capturing the beauty of wild animals in their natural habitat. I paint in acrylics mostly but have done charcoal drawings and soft pastel drawing as well and a bit of water colour and graphic pencils. I have worked in oils before but find acrylics dry a lot faster. I paint realism mostly but of late have switched to a bit of abstract painting which is fun bringing out the stories it tells. I have also done underwater scenes where I can follow the swirls and patterns of the water creating movement and patterns which are pleasing to the eye. I paint flowers, animals, underwater scenes, abstract,realism, still life, marine life, beach life, sea scapes and birds just to name a few , so keep an eye open for something different as i intend to give you just that
