From an original ink painting 34¼ inches wide x 17¼ inches tall. The full size print (image) is 31 ¾ wide by 16 inches tall (approx) and the half size print (image) 16 wide by 8 inches tall (approx).
This was painted in the early spring of 2015, using just droppers and a water spray. It was one of my first large ink paintings done in this way. I’ve painted one or two sunsets in watercolours from this spot at the north end of Porthloo. Obviously I was looking west and the island in the foreground is Taylor’s Island. Painting in this fashion is a good way to paint sunsets, because usually the scene and colours change so quickly and it is possible to cover a large area with ink in a relatively short time. The downside is it can go wrong very quickly too!
