The unpredictable and ever-changing and weather along the coast offers an infinity of inspiration. I just love to look out over the horizon taking in the big sky and the wide expanse of the ocean.
This artwork is inspired by an October evening where the incoming weather front looked this dark and ominous out in the horizon, leaving us just enough time to get home before it reached the coast and the rain painted with broad strokes over the whole land.
I like to paint moody moments like this and express its calm and serene greatness, because thats how I rememebr it. The calmeness lingers long after the moment has passed.
I build the mood slowly using my handmade pastels on cotton paper. These lyrical landscapes are not pictures of actual places, they are made from memories and express emotions and a state of mind as much as a landscape.
