Contemporary Seascape Painting

I see waves and weather every time I look out of the window and thus a large part of my painting has to be seascapes. Painting seascapes is similar to painting the sky in that there is the added element of constant movement within each work that the seascape artist must learn to deal with.

20101030-DSC_6847_8_9_tonemapped-220x147

Much of my seascape observation is of the Tay Estuary which can change from a serene mirror to an awesome entity in a very short time. The stumps of the first Tay Rail Bridge, which can still be seen, are well recognised as a testament to its power on a bad day.
