Pelican by Barbara Haviland | Barbara Haviland – Blog
The pelican is done on a gallery wrap canvas and was done with a knife. I have lots of
textures with the paint. The sides complete the painting. It is available here. We are so lucky to have these lovely birds to watch where I live. The background is done with Ultramarine Blue,Cobalt Blue, and Cerulean Blue + white. I used blues and greys for the bird.

We have just recently moved the Woodville, Texas. So far, we are both loving the country. I create art for myself. I love doing this. I am a Christian, wife, mother, retired banker, and artist. I started painting in 1976 and was hooked. I have never been bored creating a painting. The subjects are endless. I have been frustrated, but never bored, I will try all subjects, landscape, floral, seascape, still life, and portraits. I belong to several art groups
Outdoor Painters Society
Oil Painters of America
Artists of Texas
EBSQart
Tyler County Art League
I also teach oil painting classes each week in my studio.
When I'm not painting, I love to be with my family. My husband is my best friend and we have been married for 61 years. Yes 61 years. We travel thro this great country.

Im working on a larger landscape now using only the knife. It's so challenging for me! Love this little guy. Brown pelicans are one of my favorites.
