This piece is far from static.

A sense of energy and movement is created through the boats sailing in and out of the dock and the observing sea birds perched in the foreground; creating a true reflection of life on the shore.

Dorset born artist, Rebecca Lardner, manages to create a feeling of ceaseless activity and energy in her distinctive oil paintings.

She creates this motion through the composition of the sweeping shore lines that mimic the natural curves of the English coast, her portrayal of people-filled beaches, the inclusion of the docking boats, and the addition of observant seagulls perched along the shoreline.

This wonderful new release by artist, Rebecca Lardner, is packed with character. Lardner takes us to the English Coast, and treats our eyes to all of the recognisable seaside sights.

From the cute and quirky little cottages and houses that line the seafront, to the fishing boats and the ever observant sea birds waiting for their seashore supper.

Although Lardner's painting style isn't befitting of the realist genre, she does however bring an element of reality to her paintings in the shades of colour she chooses to use. Rebecca Lardner remains true to the greys, blues, greens and beiges that can be seen at any beach along the coastal region of England.
