Rays of Sun

45 x 60cm
Oil on canvas

In April, walking the coastal path at Wembury, the senses are filled with the vivid beauty of early spring. Golden gorse bushes, thick with bright yellow blossoms, line the cliffs in wild profusion. Their sharp silhouettes catch the warmth of the sun, casting soft, dappled shadows on the windswept grass. Beyond the blaze of yellow, the deep blue sea stretches to the horizon—calm, expansive, and touched with light. The sky above is wide and clear, echoing the sea’s blue tones and completing the quiet harmony of land and water. This painting captures a fleeting moment of stillness and brilliance—a celebration of Devon’s coast bathed in sunlight and alive with natural colour.
