Original artwork description:

In this expressive oil painting, painted with a combination of fast brush strokes and palette knife, the serene expanse of Dunster Beach is captured at the close of day. Vivid, energetic strokes, portray a sky aflame with the brilliant, fiery hues of sunset. The last rays of light leak through the distant, silhouetted trees of Exmoor, casting a brilliant glow on the horizon. In the foreground, the iconic, Dunster beach huts are rendered with a powerful sense of form, while the majestic, ancient silhouette of Conygar Tower stands watch from its hillside perch. The wet sand on the beach acts as a mirror, reflecting the spectacle above and creating a breathtaking, luminous path toward the viewer.

Materials used:

Hardwood board, primed with gesso, painted with oils and sealed with a satin varnish.
