Tremendous depiction of a rough sea, love the red/browns in the wave surf. Excellent work.

Haha I'm not so sure I do if the weather's that bad Carole! A great painting.

Ominous, dramatic, foreboding. The sense of danger is palpable, Carole. Love the ironic title. Excellent pastel work from top to bottom. Bri

Thank you so much for all of your encouraging, kind, comments. Have been away from the site some time and it’s lovely to see all of your incredible art work again. The weather in the painting is bad but there is excitement and danger as Brian mentions, which is all part of life and I suppose living near the North Sea has given me a sense of awe as well as respect for its unpredictability.

Being a Middlesbrough lass originally, that's just how I remember the North sea Carole, !!!

You captured a lot of movement in this; a frozen moment.. Looks like dusk or early dawn.

16” x 14” Soft pastels on Artfix paper. From a sketch taken in my car. The weather was atrocious and love’s young dream was totally unaware of the world around them. Painted from my sketch at home.
