omschrijvingA lively sketch showing the effects of waves breaking over the shore on the Cornish coast. Everett has applied thick impasto paint to show the white crests of the waves. The sea is depicted a deep green and contrasts with the sky which is ranged in horizontal stripes from pink, through orange to yellow and mauve. The artist was concerned to create a sequential series of these paintings to capture the effect of waves breaking. Following the end of World War I, Everett travelled to Helston in Cornwall on 28 January 1919. He then moved to Porthleven before renting a studio at Sennen Cove, selecting it for its good view of the sea. He stayed there until 11 May 1919. See also BHC0028.
