Shabs Beigh: Seascapes

I have always been drawn to the water. The colours alone are entrancing –turquoise, teal and blue blended together into nature’s own painting. But add into that the raw energy of the waves, and it’s not surprising that the sea captivates so many of us. I’m fascinated by waves crashing against the rocks.

I make sure I visit the coast several times a year. So many of my paintings have been inspired by walks along the coast. Over the last few years, I have visited:

- Antibes, South France

- St Ives, Padstow & Bedruthan Steps, North Cornwall

- Newborough Beach, North Wales

- South Stack, Holyhead

- Isle of Skye

- Exmouth & Sidmouth, South Devon

- Venice, Italy

- Venice Beach, Santa Monica

- Nice, France

- Monaco

A feeling of calmness comes over me when I watch the water. There’s nothing better than sitting on the beach on a hot summer day, with the sun shining on your face and the cool breeze on your shoulders. I plan on exploring all of the UK’s coastline, which I’m sure will result in many more seascapes.
