long thin seascapes in coloured pencil

I need to do some more of the long thin seascapes in the Time and Tide series for a couple of galleries so I decided to have a play in coloured pencil from sketches and paintings done at the coast and the last one simply playing with colour and shapes and taking a different viewpoint - looking back at the land instead of out to sea or along the beach.

The majority of my seascapes look out at the sea as that's the view we commonly get - but looking back at the land from the water gives an interestingly different perspective. I must do more of these.

These are only small, about 7.5 ins tall, coloured pencil in the moleskine.

I wasn't planning on them being anything other than sketches but it occurs to me that a row of them in coloured pencil might be worth framing.

I have to write a press release now and update a group website but I keep getting distracted by the amorous squirrels in the garden - it looks like we could have babies before long by this behaviour! and noisy sparrows disputing their territory - my garden - and a cat who wants attention between her bouts of ornithology through the glass door of the patio, so to work :(.
