Oil on wood

Signed on the front.

I love as you approach a new beach or go exploring along coastal tracks the anticipation of seeing the water for the first time. The adventure of getting to the beach forms the visual and tantalising part of the journey.

Each scene is like a secret, offering glimpses or tempting you onwards knowing the water is just over the hill or around the corner.

This image is part of an ongoing series of works that I am continuing to paint as I travel Australia's beautiful coast line and waterways.
