Tresco Channel from New Grimsby
27cm x 60cm acrylic on canvas board
Painted "Contre Jour", ie into the light, to pick up the sparkle on
the water. The few dinghies sitting on their moorings add some useful tonal
contrast as well as providing some touches of colour. I always enjoy painting
these tranquil scenes of Scilly , trying to capture the stillness and quiet of
the time and place.
