Grey Day by Golden Cap

A Bleak day and quite a bleak picture. Had an hour between downpours to rattle one off on the beach by Golden Cap (Lyme Regis in the background).
I had some problems with laying down the initial tonal values so it's a bit overworked but worth doing, any practice is good practice.

  1. I really like this one. The richness of the colours is really nice. I really like the coastguard images a couple of posts down too. The top one really catches the lighting well. Interesting exercise too, I'll have to try that.

  2. Cheers Annes, thanks for looking in, your comments are always welcome. I'm glad you like the richness of the colours 'Auto Tone' is fantastic isn't it :-)

  3. I love this painting. It's very expressive and I love the loose brushstrokes.
