Cornwall Beach, Late Afternoon Light' is a stunning oil painting that captures the rugged beauty and sublime atmospheric qualities of the Cornish coastline. This impressive work is by Chris Slater ARSMA, an acclaimed contemporary British artist and a member of the prestigious Royal Society of Marine Artists. Known for his unwavering commitment to painting, Slater works directly from life to translate the fleeting moments of light and weather onto the canvas. The subject, painted in 2024, focuses on a quintessential British beach scene, bathed in the rich, horizontal glow of the late afternoon sun, transforming a familiar setting into a luminous study of colour and coastal drama.

Slater's technique in this piece is defined by his masterful observation and a compelling blend of realism and impressionistic fluidity. He is a committed painter, meaning the work is completed in a single session, lending it a remarkable freshness and vitality. His use of oils, applied with a visible, energetic brushwork, captures the tactile texture of the wet sand, the shimmer of the receding tide, and the weight of the sky. The deliberate use of dramatic light and shade is paramount, articulating the forms of the cliffs and any figures on the beach, drawing the viewer's eye towards the vibrant horizon. This authentic approach ensures the painting captures not just what the place looks like, but its unique atmosphere.

As a leading exponent of the 'Northern Boys' school of art—a collective dedicated to painting from life—Chris Slater's works are a favourite of collectors globally. 'Cornwall Beach, Late Afternoon Light' is more than a seascape; it is a vivid sensory experience that conveys the profound connection between the artist and his environment. His consistent exhibition record at major UK venues, including the Mall Galleries in London, serves as a compelling hallmark of his established reputation. For the discerning collector, this piece is an exceptional acquisition, offering a luminous, expertly rendered snapshot of the British coastline.
