Seascape from the 'Birkdale'
An empty horizon from the deck of the 'Birkdale'. Everett has used form and colour to create the seascape. The sea is shown as a series of loosely painted diagonal peaks and troughs. The sky is streaked with paint to suggest cloud and the sun is represented with thick impasto paint. A swathe of lighter colour across the surface of the water denotes the reflections from the sun on the surface of the water. Everett joined the barque, 'Birkdale', and sailed from Bristol to Sabine Pass, Texas, April to June 1920.
