Love the close up Russell, which emphasises the connection of humankind to nature. Brilliant as always.

Interesting what youngsters like, a similar picture was liked by my grandson…it showed him sat with his gran (back view) on a beach looking out to sea. This is brilliantly done.

Delightful Russell. It makes me wonder what he was thinking about looking out to sea.

You’ve got him so close that I feel I’m looking over his shoulder. You can feel his presence. Really like this.

Perhaps for a reminder of how he was feeling, and thinking…..looking out into the unknown. A terrific painting Russell.

The waves, the wind in his hair and the dark sky, great painting.

Looking at this, you get to wonder what’s going on in Charlie’s head Russell, lovely work

Approx A4, oil on W & N oil paper. Charlie liked a photo of himself on a beach in Anglesey and asked if I could paint it for him. Attempt at 'alla prima' but completed in two sessions which is ultra quick for me!
