Gathering Storm by Wib Dawson

A very powerful painting Wib with a real feel of approaching storm.

I can feel the wind from here - are you familiar with the work of the US artist Roger Bansemer? He too has a fascination with lighthouses - I'm sure he's painted this one - and has a collection of lighthouse paintings from all around the country.

Superb Wib this really is a beauty

Super painting Wib

Great piece of painting Wib, love the overall composition and atmosphere you have generated into the piece, I can almost hear the wind and waves, like the piece very much .

This is nice Wib great dramatic painting I like it .

Thank you very much Satu, Robert and Dennis - it was fun to paint.

Thank you Cliff, Graham and Dennis. There are times when I wonder if a painting is ever really finished but there are also those times when you reach a point where most of the elements in a composition seem to be working and it's time to say "enough".

Wib, this is alive! Every element is full of movement; the sky, the earth, the sea.....it's wonderful!

Thanks ever so much, Fiona.

A charming painting full of energy Wib

Thank you, Sarah.
