Sennen Cove, Cornwall
A rapidly executed sketch showing waves coming ashore at the beach at Sennen Cove, Cornwall. The artist has defined the characteristics of the painting by dividing the image into horizontal layers. The colour purple is used to unite the shades between sky and sea, while the waves are streaked with turquoise. The artist has concentrated on capturing a fleeting moment in the life of a wave, indicated by the flecks of white. These represent water caught by the wind on the crests of the waves.
