Sunday Morning Stroll – painting

This original painting by Nick Kelly is simply entitled ‘Sunday Morning Stroll’ and depicts a calming beach scene at Whitstable.

A typical walk by the sea.

At low tide there is a stretch of stones that appears which is known locally as ‘The Street’ it’s the perfect place for a peaceful stroll. 

Whitstable is a seaside town on the north coast of Kent and was formerly known as Whitstable-on-Sea and is famous for its oysters and its oyster festival held each summer.

This reflective painting is typical of Nick’s work. Growing up in Whitstable he always had a fondness for the sea, developing his artistic style.

Many years were spent travelling and working in the Middle East, but in later years he settled back in Whitstable where he now paints and writes. 

Nick has a particular love of figures placed in a landscape. ‘I’m interested in the relationship between humans and the environment, from the single walker enjoying peace and tranquillity to the mass of people gathering on the beach on a warm summer day.’

His work is also shown in galleries in Whitstable, Westgate and Margate. 

This original painting is painted in acrylic on a 4 cm deep canvas, the work is unframed, but is ready to hang.
