TURNERESQUE

Colour, Light and Emotional Impact

I’m a lifelong admirer of the remarkable work of the great English painter J.W.M. Turner. His stunning and emotive paintings have always been a profound source of inspiration and when I stand before his work, I’m in awe of his brushwork.

Although I’m no Turner, I strive to capture the beautiful light and intense drama that I see unfolding before me. Living close to the coast gives me an abundance of opportunity to capture awe-inspiring vistas.

Through my seascape photography, I hope to share my deep appreciation for the beauty and power of the coast, while also paying homage to the artistic legacy of the genius of J.W.M. Turner. Learn more by reading this story.
