‘Sugary Cove VI’, Monoprint & Acrylic, 35cm x 30cm

One-off monoprint — only one available

With Spring ’22 very much in the air, my Coves started to brighten up – although the palette remains generally on the cold side (& the sea in particular!) the light in the first few weeks of March becomes noticeably more intense very quickly.  Both this & ‘Castillo del Mar VI’ were rendered from photos taken during a particularly vigorous Springtide, with the crashing waves very much the feature.

With these Coves I’ve created both sky & sea in a few gelliplate layers, & then applied the first layer of the cove using a hand-cut stencil followed by a single gelliplate layer.
