Beautifully painted , it’s a superb piece Lisa

That is a total delight Lisa.

Lovely work.

Beautiful picture Lisa, the sea is excellent.

Beautifully done Lisa.

You leave me (almost) speechless - the superb colour is so right for the sunrise scene, the figures make sense in their environment (this isn't always the case when we introduce people to land or seascape) and although swimming at dawn in this climate and time of year is something I'd never do in a thousand years, I've every respect for those mad fools who do it. It's a lovely painting - and I can absolutely SEE that you're inspired by colour.

It's excellent - super seas, skies and swimmers - all the s's!

I like everything about this, superb.

Beautifully painted.

Thank you all for your encouraging and kind comments, you’ve inspired me to do another one on a similar theme 😊 This is one of a few paintings that will be on show in a cafe (Brighton Sea Lanes Fika cafe) for a month, it’s not a big thing really but is to me.

So beautiful

A feast to the eye, marvelous choice of palette and excellent technique on waves.

Thank you Elana and Robert
