This painting is one of a series which stems from the artist’s visits to the Kent coast, to Deal and Broadstairs. Parasols, inflatables and windbreaks offer the viewer punches of colour that punctuate the horizon and the overall scene of people relaxing and enjoying the hot sun generates a real sense of longing for the thrills of summers past.
