Ellenabeich storm

One of our favourite places to go to when the weather is dramatic, sometimes you can hardly stand up the wind is so strong and the salt spray stings your face. I wanted to try and capture all that and the wonderful light

Oil painting on Gesso board

Colin takes the presentation of his work very seriously! The entire picture is created from scratch.
He lovingly prepares each Gesso board to conservation standards, and uses hand-made oil paints from a specialist supplier. He also builds each individual frame specifically to complement the painting, and often finishes the frame with special wax varnish which he mixes himself. Some of the frames will have gold leaf applied to further enhance the effect.
