The inspiration behind this painting came about on a summer's day, when the brightness of the sun was reflected on the sand of the beach. The air was warm and still, the kind of day when you just want to close your eyes and soak up the summer. Looking out to sea, it became evident that a storm was breaking some distance away and the sky was filled with a brooding darkness. The scene was made all the more menacing by the sound of thunder, rolling along the horizon and pulling the sea up into the tumult above. I have tried to invoke the contrast experienced when the two extremes of the elements meet up in a display of natural beauty. The original painting was executed in mixed media, blending acrylic with coloured pencil.
