Beautiful and ever changing light on the sea here at Vaux sur Mer. The sun, clouds and, I think, sandbanks, affect the colour of the sea. It changes from indigo to very pale green, to golden and turquoise.

Painting and drawing in Cornwall in June - fabulous colour, light and exceptional heat!
Wow what weather. It was so hot I was hiding under a rock at noon one day!
The light and colour is fabulous around the coast. I spent most time at Cape Cornwall, Porthgwallar and Bottalack on the 'tin coast' where you can see the remains of old tin mines and the recent Pollark drama was filmed.
Even the rock in this part of the country are beautiful shapes and colours.
