Spring is there… and I say I start to miss seaside, fresh air, and the contact with elements. Digging in my pictures, I found a picture taken during a walk close the Cap Blanc Nez, near Calais. I didn't like the light at first: somehow hazy, the day was quite warm. But I found it was a good opportunity to take my pastels and try to render a bit of this atmosphere. The sun was vaguely coming over the cliffs - they weren't wight, but a kind of blue or violet, melting with the greens and sky.
Enjoyed doing this quick pastel study, here it is :
Walk towards the Blanc Nez
Enjoyed it indeed - the sea, a walk on coastal path near home, a taste of holidays was entering the studio… looking forward for this summer, we're nearly there!
