16/8/2019 0 Comments Old Harry Rocks![]() 'Old Harry Rocks' Oil on paper mounted to card Outer dimensions 7x5" Image dimensions 6x4" Available from New Blood Art gallery £175 Here's a little painting I made last year on the beach at Studland Bay, Dorest, looking towards the Old Harry Rocks.
I sat on the beach with my pochade box on my lap, as the late afternoon sun shone on the cliffs. I gave the painting a little glaze after it dried to enhance the feel of the evening glow. It got a little sandy as I was working on it but I like the little bit of texture it adds. I love watching the light change on the chalk cliffs throughout the day - its so beautiful the way they reflect the colours of sea and sky.

I had such a lovely time making this painting, Studland Bay is an incredibly beautiful place and the weather was gorgeous, if a bit breezy - the painting got a little sandy as a result! 10x8 " oil on panel This is a fun thing to do with a plein air landscape painting - try to line it up with the scene after you've finished! It creates an interesting illusion. Here's a tiny snippet of me creating the painting - if you'd like me to make full videos demonstrating my plein air painting approach, let me know in the comments below, I'll see what I can do!
