“Louis' first trip to the sea. He enjoyed the fresh fish lunch but found the water a little cold at 24°C— that's the trouble with waiting 'till September when the crowds have gone”

I can almost feel the warmth of the rocks. Beautiful composition as well.
Totally admire the warm glow of your boulders. I've been painting rocks and waves lately but have been less brave in the contrast between warm and cool.
What a rich painting, and the blues were so realistic. I always enjoy your paintings but some are just so special.
Hi Julian:
I can smell the salt air from here in New England.I hope Louis will get to love all the wonders of the ocean.
What a contrasting effect between the calmness of the sky,the effervescence of the sea and the intricacy of convolutions of the boulders!Arresting!
Ah but the sky is so blue and the water so clear and no crowds in September just as it is on Cape Cod here in America.
