I don't know about doing it justice, I think this is really good, Gary, very well done.

Lovely sky, Gary, and I especially like the rose coloured light from the sky in the foreground water.

Lovely painting. The silhouette of the quayside really brings out the sky and the sea.

I think you've done it perfect justice. Fantastic sky silhouetting the harbour with a lovely glow in the foreground.

Atelier Interactive Acrylics on HP Watercolour Board, 16x12". I found it quite odd to be on the east coast of England but to get a glorious sunset over the sea due the west facing curve of the bay. The distinctive harbour of Whitby adds a lovely foreground. I haven't really done the scene justice here but enjoyed painting it nonetheless!
