Victorian Beaches

This is a Series of Beaches from Bells Beach ,Torquay to Barwon Heads

Created by Sue Coote

It’s a bright sunny summers day, I was standing on top of the cliff looking across to the point at the other end of the beach, in the foreground is the very typical coastal shrubs that grow along our beaches, below the gentle waves are rolling in along the sand . With the use of turquoise, shades of blue, whites, and green this painting is typical of a summers day .

It’s a cold crisp morning, the viewer is looking down over the coastal shrubs to the Rockpool’s below. It’s very low tide, the moss is visible on the rocks, the sand is showing through the shallow still water, with just a trickle of waves rolling in. The water is painted in a turquoise, blue with the grasses in soft brown, olive. Coastal shrubs are in blue, grey with a few little pops of pale yellow.

The painting is of a view along the cliff top of a beach, in the foreground is the coastal shrubs overlooking the low tide that exposes the rocks and moss in the shallows of the sea. It’s a slightly foggy morning so there is a mist on the ocean. The cliff leads the eye along the beach to the bluff in the distance. The colour pallet is in pastel turquoise, blue sky and ocean. With brown, green grasses and a mix of colours in the shrubs.

Walking on the beach at the end of a beautiful day whilst on holidays in sunny Queensland the seagulls were all splashing around on the shoreline. The waves were breaking out the back, the rocks forming a break so that the water is calm in the shallows I took this photo and have always really liked it, I have painted it a couple of times now with different colours and different seagull formations . In This painting I’ve used a pallet of blue,greys, whites and sand colouring on the beach This painting always has a calm ,tranquil feel to it
