Pastel on Pastelmat card.30 x 24 cm. Depicts the harbour fishing village of Mousehole (an old smugglers cave resembles a big mouse hole), in Cornwall near Landsend, on a very stormy morning. Painted in the studio from an on-site water colour sketch that I managed despite the wind. Blocked in with Faber Castell, the used various softer sticks from Schminke, Sennelier but mainly Unison.

Many thanks for these comments, I truly appreciate them. I love the sea and Cornwall in particular. The water colour sketch that formed my refence material was done hastily in the storm so it had a lot of unintentional brish strokes. I intend to make a larger oil painting from this pastel. By the way, I find pastels excellent for rapid outdoor sketches. No need for lugging heavy kit about and it's easy to clean ones fingers after the event. Try them!Anonymous Guest 28 Nov 2023
