The third coastal landscape painting which I made in the open air over summer, at Killarney Beach in Southwest Victoria. It was a windy and overcast summer's day, the grey clouds overhead threatened rain. I worked quickly to get ahead of any downpour, and render the waves as they rolled onto shore. The scene is calm, but the dunes are pockmarked by swirling wind. There is subtle texture in the grey sand, cold blues and turquoise in the ocean waves. I feel, painting this scene from life is so apt, given I grew up in this part of the world, whilst this landscape remained its timeless self, almost unchanged.
