"Mossy Wall, Bright Sea", St Marys, Isles of Scilly
"Mossy Wall, Bright Sea", St Marys, Isles of Scilly

This was painted on bright clear afternoons in the late spring of 2011 and is on the footpath past Juliet's Garden restaurant below the Golf Club. I was looking south to the Bishop Rock Lighthouse and the Haycocks rocks. It is a great location to capture the silver sea and the last daffodils were still in flower. But what really caught my attention was the texture of the moss on the wall. I tried different methods to capture this mossy texture with paint alone, finally achieving it by combining hard pastel with the paint.
Dimensions:
- full size print image - twenty seven inches by nine and a half inches (approx)
- half size print image - fifteen and three quarter inches by five and a half inches (approx)
