Stop...Thief

Description

This was an odd one..

Been having significant art block lately, partly because of the lack of free time, partly because all the ideas I had require lots of exploration into new areas not familiar with and skills that I still need to work on...

Anyway, I initially thought I'd start a small project..just the two feet splashing and work on painting the water and droplets,..somehow it developed into a full figure and with a smile in profile....
...then I had a devil of a time trying to get the colour of the sea right..and the ripples and tiny waves..by the time I'd completed that, it felt that I had spent too much time and there's just too little story...
So, the gulls came in yesterday ( I had to look that up) and the stolen sandwich and the wicker basket just now..the surprised expression about the same time...

Edit 30/03/10:
added the arm reaching out, because it was so glaringly obvious that it should be there..and :iconmanic-goose: had already pointed it out..(I was so hoping that no one would notice actually..)

I really like it! The details you add really show how much effort you put into your work. :)
