Portscatho harbour, evening light |
The short break in Portscatho resulted in four paintings, this one on the evening I arrived and then three on what was to prove the hottest day of the year so far!
The harbour here is so pretty and I adored the sweep of the hill and those white houses lit by the evening sun. Almost every house in Portscatho is whitewashed. Can you imagine how dazzling that can be on a 'blue sky' day?
Here are a few photos I took along the way...
And here's a snap of it in it's frame, white washed to match the houses and looking rather spiffing!
And all my Portscatho paintings as well as three of my Mousehole and two Sennen cove paintings are now available to buy from the beautiful Harbour Gallery in Portscatho :-)
Great work, as always. I love how you include photos of your work in progress. Thank you for that. And the frame is perfect!
ReplyDeleteThanks Karen :-)
DeleteSounds like you've had a wonderful time - lovely paintings. The link to the Harbour Gallery didn't work though - technical hitch!
ReplyDeleteThanks Angela, I will fix that!
DeleteI love seeing the stages in an artists workflow so thanks for posting these, very generous. You seem to get the scale of everything so deadly accurate in your paintings, something I still struggle with and I'm a draftsman by trade.
ReplyDeleteSuperb piece of work!
Thanks very much Glynn for your super comment! I have been drawing from life for 30 years now, I think that's what it is!

ReplyDeleteThanks Mark! Will fix that link when I get back on computer :-)
