Original artwork description:

From an early age I remember going down to the beach with my Father. On occasion when the incoming tides where particularly dangerous the coastguard would patrol along the length of the beach in order to warn people of the imminent danger the fast approaching tide posed. In the wake of his Land rover he left ruts in the wet sand that always intrigued me, as the further they went out the closer they grew, reminding me of train tracks (but more imperfect). This, along with other random reminders made for strong memories of that time and place.

Painted on very high quality professionally made Gallery style canvas on cross braced frame. Painting attempts to convey the effect of sunset on a wet beach. I have given a translucency to the work in order to accentuate the mirroring effect the landscape displays in these conditions.

Pictures are taken with a canon 450D camera in dull daylight in flash off mode and are as faithful as i can take them.

Painting will come varnished and ready to hang with sealed in certificate to the rear and signed of course.

Materials used:

Oil Paint on Gallery style stretchered Heavy grade canvas
