A rather cold Sunday walk along the beach this afternoon with my wife and twins. Trying to gain some inspiration for a large multimedia picture. The beaches around North Devon are just wonderful and I’ve been looking toward painting a large composition of a beach with a big dramatic sky. The colours were really punchy today with the full winter sunlight so hopefully I’ve managed to get some photographic reference down. This photograph was taken on Putsborough Beach looking towards a sunny Woolacombe in the distance. We’re very lucky to live in such a wonderful part of the country.
Finished mixed media picture (825mmx 500mm). Time to stop fighting with this one!
Watercolour of the hot monsoon approaching Koh Samui, Thailand. Original picture taken from a ferry to the mainland at Surat Thani. Large composition of a very hot and humid day in the 1990s.
Pastel drawing of a hot and hazy summers day. Saunton Beach is a wonderfully long stretch a sand on the North Devon Coast, England. Used by surfers, kite surfers, although the carpark is perhaps going to be upping it’s prices.
