Water colour on Bockingford 300gsm (140lb) Acid free paper.

Info:
The coast line near Filey has always attracted me. This scene of one of the small attractive bays shows how the use of figures in landscapes can add to the effect and show scale, as we all can relate to the size of people. This was most enjoyable to paint.

I was attracted to this view of Harlech Castle by the mist in between the hills, which looked almost like fast running water, the subtle changes in lightness of tone help push the castle back into the distance.

Three Peaks series
My Son has better legs than me and was persuaded to take three photographs whilst the rest of the family staid warm in the car. It was Very Cold and it had been snowing with a howling gale blowing hard across the hills. Here I illustrate just how cold and bleak it can get up there on the Whernside peak. You can make your paintings look like this by using cool colours and greys.. I thoroughly enjoyed painting the Three Peaks; however, my son said that he did not enjoy the experience as much as I did.

When I was able-bodied young man, I actually climbed this peak, Brrrr it was very very cold up there. Again using cool colours helps convey the chilly temperature. The clouds were even darker than those I painted. Great stuff.
