"Seagulls"
Drawn from the movie "Into The Wild."

<center>”Seagulls”</a> 8”x11” (#3409) graphite pencil on buff drawing paper
 by Lee Gordon Seebach</center>

In the film, there's a scene in which a flock of seagulls appear to be having a blast, flying up and down on and all around a beach, with the ocean waves crashing behind them.  It was wonderful.  I took this as a sign that I needed to freeze the DVD and draw them, one at a time, picking out the ones that I felt like drawing.  Rather than make a design of the scene, I chose to draw them individually as studies.
