“*Dune 4” is the latest in the series of beach paintings…at only 7×10 it’s the smallest of the collection, but has colourful impact…painted in watercolour on Arches HP paper, it gives the impression of a silk painting, with it’s strong lines and defined edges*
Maybe it is the memories
the change of pace that brings us there
the sense of vacation
maybe the smell of the place
the sights of the gulls, the dunes, the grasses
but oh it is the feel of it,
the crunch and slide of it
the feeling of beach sand
so different from dirt, soil, loam
no, not earthy, moist, rich,
but oh so granular and gritty
even when wet,
moveable paper spreading under toes
sliding beneath the soles
smoothing my skin
clearing my mind
unburdening me of the rest
drawing me to the tactile, the feel
of beach sand..R. Foss
I paint in many different styles and feature a myriad of subject matter, which I show as individual collections….
I am inspired by the world interpreting it in brilliant colours, often influenced by the writings of famous authors and poets..

Yes, it does have the feel of a silk painting. Very atmospheric and pretty. :-) x
The hot pressed paper is like silk and almost as difficult to paint on…I like the challenge of it…thanks so much Fiona…
