Another Sorrento Painting

This is a little pen and wash painting that I did while at our Class ACT painting weekend in Sorrento. Our local artists showed us a beautiful little-known walk that skirts the top of the cliffs between Sorrento and Portsea. From there are magnificent views across Port Philip Bay. The quiet coves below the cliffs have small jetties and quaint boat sheds nestled - an artist's dream.

The particular day we were painting there was beautiful - still and mild. Such a range of blues across the water and lovely reflections of the ochre-coloured cliffs made for a perfect painting spot.

This painting is on Aches 300gsm rough watercolour paper (16 cm x 12 cm)
