I like the concept of your cast shadows on the beach Marjorie. Are they cast from above or are they from low winter sun? I also like the loose approach using a knife, giving a textural quality……lovely.

Thank you Paul, Romila and Fiona. The sun was low, we were well wrapped up I remember, possibly October.

Yes, I like this super impression too. The blurring helps to develop mood AND it hints at a deep chill. Love the angry sea. Bri

Like the strong, textural effects juxtaposed to the haziness of the figures, possibly a little wet from sea spray.

30cmx30cm canvas, palette knife. The shadows are my husband and me and two friends looking down on the beach from the prom. Our shadows are on the sand.
