colours

While on the beach in Ingoldmells I saw shells and stones that you don't get on the Roker coast. I loved the colours, and sat painting these in the sun while the kids dug a huge pit which was eventually big enough to fit my daughter in. I wanted to make a loose study of the swirling layers in a small sandstone pebble, but I was interrupted by an ice cream which needed eating fast. Still, it reminds me of the morning I sat on the sand amongst the shells and stones.
