‘Calm Before The Storm’ Acrylic

For this painting I primed the canvas with gesso to give it a smooth finish once painted.
I picked out a pretty sky blue and covered the whole canvas twice. Once that dried I created thick dollops of acrylic using white, a darker blue and a little green to make swirling waves.
I painted the sides to match so it all has a slight 3D look.

Once this dried I varnished the painting to protect the canvas from dust and debris, also to keep the acrylic from coming away.

This is a painting from my memory from a lovely spring day down on a Dorset beach. Beautiful clear blues skies and frothy waves.

I sign the back of the canvas and you also receive a certificate of authenticity.
