Crosby beach (cloudy day)
This is a watercolour sketch of Crosby Beach, a place I frequent and hold close to my heart. The composition captures the mood of a cloudy day, with dramatic skies dominating the scene. I managed to bring the clouds into composition through the shifting hues brought to life with layered washes. The reflection on the sea mirrors this stormy magnificence, adding depth and movement to the tranquil expanse. I tried to capture the interplay of light and shadow that evoked the fleeting beauty which changed every time I looked out into the scene. This painting was created En Plein air.
