An en plein air painting made on location at the nature reserve behind Benone Beach over looking the sand dunes and the sea.

Tucked away behind the dunes, I sat down to paint. The day had a sense of rain coming, winds from the shore brought the smell of the sea close. You could just see the sea if you stretched up to look, but the noise of the waves was there.

The study is mixed media, colour pencils and paint, whatever was close to hand in my bag. I love this contrast of loose lines tracing the lines in the dunes. Framed in a white wood with glass.
