The final piece and second of the large canvas paintings I have produced for the Chamber of Commerce to exhibit. The working boats in the harbour are always interesting to watch and sketch. The reflections on this day across a still sea were what initially drew me to the view. Difficult to capture an ever twinkling and moving slice of light - this is made up of many, many overlapping layers of paint. If you can see it in person (or zoom in) then you will be able to see what I am describing. I have a love/hate relationship with painting water - I love how it looks, I am excited and inspired when I start laying down the first layers - but it is so difficult to know when to stop and when you have it just so. If you overwork it, then the glittering light can easily be lost. As well as the original presented here for sale - this is an available as a variety of prints on either 300gsm archival paper (framed or unframed) at a4, a3 or a2 size. (£25-£100). Or on canvas in whatever size you want. (£80-£300). Drop me a message and I can organise collection or shipping.
