Summer Breeze, North Wales by Dermod Ruddock

Original oil painting on wood panel by Dermod Ruddock

So, many of you might think, so he's painted the bay at Morfa Nefyn again...and you'd be right. The reason it makes sense to return to a familiar view is because the light and conditions are always changing. I love autumn and spring light because the shadows are often longer, but in summer the light can be more intense. And on this day there was a stiff northerly breeze driving the waves onto the beach at Bwlch and the sun shone brightly out of a nearly cloudless sky...so a view with contrasts.
