ARTIST NOTES: Beach Scene by Lorraine Barclay - At first glance the inspiration behind this painting is clear, it is a moment that many beach enthusiasts know and enjoy.

The picture of a hot summers day on an isolated beach and not a person in sight.  The orange tones in the foreground allow you to instantly feel the warmth of the golden sand between your toes.  You remember sand that is hot under foot as you dance towards the clear blue, green waters of the ocean.  Like many South Australian beaches, the surf is low with only a small rumble of waves crashing against the sand.  The clear blue sky disappears into the horizon, the line where the water ends and the sky begins is blurred in the distance.

The original, acrylic on canvas painting is unframed, ready to hang and featured in SA Life Magazine in conjunction with the SALA Exhibition in 2017.

ARTIST BIO

Painting has always held a special place in my heart and is where my true passion lies. In recent years I have extended my focus to learn and refine my skills in quilting, felt making, candlewicking, silk scarf painting and silk card making.

Throughout my career I have explored many different styles and worked with a variety of materials.  Much of my inspiration has been drawn from nature itself, most notably South Australia’s Flinders Rangers, playing with vibrant colours and textures to create my art.  Today, my portfolio features impressionistic scenes working with acrylic on canvas, allowing my work to create itself as the paint takes form on the canvas.

I enjoy sharing my work with others and have participated in many local exhibitions. My most recent exhibit was part of the South Australian Living Artist Festival at Art Expression @ 123 Fisher where my painting, Beach Scene, also featured in SA Life magazine and various promotional materials.
