After all the rain in Sydney it was good to get out in the sun again. Visited Coogee beach on a lovely sunny day and did a small watercolour of the bright light hitting the surf life saving club and hotel.

A few months ago I painted a larger oil showing the view just after the sun went down. The combination of the night light and ocean reflections provided stunning light & atmosphere. Although the two were painted from a different viewpoint, they both feature the surf life saving club on the left and the Grand Pacific private hotel with the Barzooka restaurant to the right of it. (which incidentally is recommended for lunch and dinner)
