Wintry Light Print

Wintry Light’ captures the shift from the subtle summer jades to the cold dark greys of winter. I wore two coats on this day, woolly hat and fingerless gloves. But even then my time was limited because of the weather. The sea was choppy, the wind strong and the low light visible. I loved it. I am constantly puzzling out ways to interpret the coastline using watercolours. This is the beauty of it, the way it lends itself to so many techniques…… and of course it’s wonderful wet translucency. Perfect for the sea. Although ever changing, were each day identical, I’m convinced I would interpret each painting differently. But of course every day is different. In fact the light, textures and colours change minute by minute. I hope this painting conjures feelings of a cold, wintry, windy walk along a beautiful coastline.
