Coastal scenery is among the most challenging of landscape subjects. Capturing light, reflection, mist, waves, rocks, dunes, varying skies, coastal architecture, and vessels can stump even advanced artists. Brindley, an esteemed member of the Royal Society of Marine Artists, is a master. He travels the world seeking distinctive scenes and depicts light and atmosphere in a modern impressionistic style. This superb volume features oil, watercolor, and pastel. For watercolor and acrylic with pen and ink, see Claudia Nice's Down by the Sea with Brush and Pen.
