Gylly Rock Pools – painting

This stunning painting by Tracy Mckenna, titled "Gylly Rock Pools", captures the view from Gyllynvase beach, commonly known as Gylly beach, as it looks towards Pendennis Castle on the eastern headland of Falmouth in Cornwall.

The reflection of the autumn light in the rock pools is a stunning sight, set against the shadow of Henry VIII's fortification.

Gylly beach is one of the largest and most beloved beaches in Falmouth, making it a popular destination for families.

Born in Cyprus, Tracy grew up in a northern mill town on the edge of the Pennines. She studied Art and Design at Nelson and Colne College and then moved on to the Arts University at Bournemouth where she graduated with a BA (Hons) and a High Commendation from the RSA. 

Since then she has qualified as a teacher of Art and Design.

Inspiration is never far away as she recently moved to Penryn in Cornwall to be closer to the sea, one of her favourite subjects to paint, and now has a new purpose studio in which to work.

This original work is painted in acrylic on canvas board and comes in a simple white wash finished wooden floating tray frame without glass, ready to be displayed.
