Estuary (large painting 121X 60cm)

Estuary depicts an aerial view of an estuary as it may be seen from a drone. One of the most exciting developments in technology and in particular photography, in the past two years is the introduction of the drone high-flying cameras that enables you to capture unique viewpoints of the landscape. I love the amazing patterns and vistas you see when viewed from above. Drones allow you to get into an area that most planes and helicopters are not allowed to go. Flying low gives a rare range of vision. I have found that these exciting new ways of looking at the landscape have inspired my paintings. Estuary view is an example and is from a series of works that I exhibited in 2017 titled Shoreline. .
