Filey Coast No. 2

• Acrylic on box canvas
• 61cm x 30.5cm

This canvas is smaller in scale to the other Yorkshire Coast and Filey images and projects the austerity and sombre seascape during inclement weather at Filey.  The sky hangs heavy and atmospheric in contrast to the texture of the sandy shore.  Acrylic paint is used roughly to evoke the constant movement, unpredictability and power of the sea, particularly during storms.  This coastline is amongst the most beautiful I have visited and this painting is somewhat an ode to that.
