Virgin Sand at Dawn Bracklesham Painting

To start my journey I am a completely self taught artist and therefore I do not walk the well-trodden path of faithfully recreating the landscape as it is, I see it with my own eyes and perspective. I wish to evoke a sense of passion and colour into the mind of the viewer, to give them the tools they need to experience the elements of light, the smell of the water, the sounds of the storm and hopefully take the journey with me. I feel I probably break most of the rules and have a very energetic approach. I use everything I can to evoke the end result, including large house brushes, palette knives and old household spray bottles, employing anything until I achieve my sense of place on canvas.
