Salt House Beach by Thalia Stones

Lovely contrast between the dark blue sky and the sea. The small area of golden beach adds the finishing touch.

Just love the contrast here between the dark and light colours. Very striking.

Yes it's excellent Thalia, great dramatic sky also.

That's such an atmospheric painting Thalia, the dark of the sky and the crashing waves are super.

Love the drama in this Thalia, and those strong contrasting colours.

Lovely brooding sky, looks like a real storm brewing up 😀

Excellent drama and movement, Thalia. Yes, it certainly believable and delightfully suggestive. Brian

Thank you, Seth and Sandra, those are helpful comments as I'm just working on some more dramatic skies! thank you Alan, I'm never sure whether my waves are too solid! I love Aivazovskiy's waves and try to emulate them...I fall a long way short, but at least I try! Thank you, Margaret, Jenny, and Linda. All your comments are really helping with the two small oils on my easel as I write!

Very powerful painting, Thalia - such great movement in both the sky and the sea...

This is superb, Thalia. The rendering of the water, and the waves crashing on the shore are stunning....fantastic contrast too, really creates a piece with great drama.

That's a threatening sky Thalia, superb work

Thank you very much Chandra, Jan and Russell,thank you all for looking and commenting!

Missed this at the time! You are not afraid of strong colours which is great. Love it!
