Semi Abstract Seascapes

A few new semi abstract seascapes are now completed and online for sale at several online galleries, including my personal gallery website, I enjoy creating semi abstract seascapes focusing on the colours, mood and atmosphere,  using only the finest artists quality oil paints and canvases, in these paintings layers of colour and texture are built up gradually, creating depth and luminosity, the latest collection has gorgeous blues and mauve in the sky and the golden colours of the sand and shore.

In Ocean Light II the colours are blended together carefully, expressive brush marks are used, with the light source in the centre, radiating light onto the shore below, many of my paintings aren’t created to represent a particular place, but they still contain some of the fundamental elements of the sea, shore or land of a certain area, I feel that a painting is successful when I have succeeded in capturing a fleeting, transient, moment of the day

Creating & Capturing Light

Many of my landscape and seascape paintings focus on the effects of light, whether it be radiant sunlight streaming through the clouds, misty ethereal light on a cloudy day, reflected shimmering light on the water in my original seascapes, moonlight shining on the sea, or the golden light from the sun as it sinks below the horizon, in many of my paintings the light is the star of the show!

Creating Mood & Atmosphere

I enjoy creating mood & atmosphere in my paintings, by focusing on the colours, the light & shade, abstract shapes in the sky and on the shore, all combined in a way that can connect with the viewer, and create an emotional response, breathtaking, beautiful ethereal seascapes, created from memory and imagination, expressive and vibrant art to adorn the walls of your home or office space
