Title or Location: Moment in Time. Dorset Coastline.
I am drawn to the coast where I walk daily and swim in the warmer months. I find the colours of the sea and sky fascinating , as they change constantly with the seasons, weather conditions and time of the day. I aim to capture a moment in time and the emotional charge that goes with it. This is no 2 in a series and my most recent seascape painted this year. Oil on canvas.
