Acrylics on paper (10 x 14 ins) as always. A grand spot to live, don't you think? I'm dedicating this to my mother, who was never happier than when she was beside the sea.

what a gorgeous work, jackie. your shadows brings in the viewer to an almost 3D feel. the hills in the back look like the morning mist is still there. GREAT WORK!

Artist Reply: Thanks a million, Bernie for finding the time to comment on this..............the light here has such wonderful qualities and effects on the landscape and this is one of the things that I'm really driven to try to express in my paintings at the moment
