Some sketches from a week by the sea in Wales, with more painting than drawing in an attempt to catch the soft natural forms. First some wave-watching, a tiny fish washed up on the beach, and a solitary morning beach walker…

…the tiny fish made big…

…then the same headland at different tides and in different media…

…and finally the tide surging around jagged rocks.

All the usual suspects, with the addition of gouache for the second to last one, and white wax crayon for the foaming wave crests – all A6, around 20-30 mins each
