Description

Perched atop their weathered fence posts, the self-appointed board members of the Seagull Coastal Committee hold their latest beachside meeting.
The agenda? Staring judgmentally at passersby, squawking loudly about absolutely nothing, and debating the finer points of snack theft.
As usual, the chairman (highest on the post, of course) insists on maintaining strict eye contact with the nearest unsuspecting tourist, while the others pretend to listen.
The barbed wire is merely decorative—after all, no fence can contain their opinions.
Meeting adjourned? Only when the next bag of chips is spotted.

Brushwork:
*Loose, expressive strokes create texture and movement. The fence posts feel rugged and weathered, while the seagulls are painted with just enough detail to capture their character. The sky is softly blended, balancing the dynamic foreground.

Humour and Narrative:
*The seagulls look like they're holding a board meeting—probably about snack-stealing strategies. Their orderly perches contrast with their mischievous nature, and the barbed wire is just a minor inconvenience in their world of judgment and opportunism.

See It Your Way:
*A lighthearted take on community and unspoken hierarchies, or simply a charming coastal moment. It’s a reminder that no matter how fancy the fence, seagulls will always claim the best seat.
