Original artwork description:

‘SAND RAINBOW’ is an acrylic painting developed from observations of the expansive beach landscape of Sefton U.K. where I live and in particular the dramatic beach skies seen at dawn and twilight. The painting is expressive and gestural, not a painted replica of a photograph, hopefully reflecting the extensive colour palette of the sky at twilight. The twilight beach photographs taken by Aly Linaker and Sharon Barnes inspired the painting. Along the beach towards a nature reserve there used to be wooden jetties and moorings which extended to the sea from the beach. In the winter of 2015 exceptionally high tides finally swept the jetties away. The painting makes a reference to the jetties. I’ve been walking this beach daily for many years. I like the peace it gives me to start the day. I am also always inspired by the work of the Fauvists and the Expressionists together with modernists Gillian Ayres, Howard Hodgkin, Patrick Heron, David Hockney and John Hoyland.
