The Waters of England and Scotland explored

Lands End 60 x 50 cm oil on canvas

With a few minor changes and refinement, I have completed the Lands End painting.
It was an interesting journey for me to create the impression of the rocks and cliffs, which I only attempted once before.

The painting below is the first attempt of rocks and cliffs and of Lands End as well, but of a different region in that locality.

Here below is a painting of Devon beach in England done in 2013. I have grown to enjoy painting in oils because of the slow drying nature of the paints, ability to blend easily and also create texture and detail. Since I discovered oils, I have been fascinated by them and perhaps since I lived by the beach for a long time in Devon, Brighton and the South West England, I have continued to paint the waters of these beautiful locations and have thoroughly enjoyed the process.
