An original oil painting inspired by the view from above Polkerris Beach in Cornwall, looking out across the sea as the sun begins to set.

Soft sunset tones meet the rich blues of the water, with little sailing boats scattered across the horizon. I wanted to capture that calm, golden feeling of being above the beach and watching the sea stretch out into the distance.
