Robin Hoods Bay painting, an original oil pastel painting of two girls enjoying a paddle in the sea at Robin Hood’s Bay, Yorkshire. By Yorkshire landscape artist Janine Jacques.
MEDIUM: Original oil pastel painting
STYLE: Yorkshire coastal painting
LOCATION: Robin Hood’s Bay, North Yorkshire
SUBJECT: Two girls paddling in the sea at Robin Hood’s Bay
Our family enjoyed a lovely day out at Robin Hood’s Bay by the sea. The beach was a special spot for us to relax, take leisurely walks and enjoy a paddle in the cool shallows.
Listening to the soothing sounds of the sea brought us a sense of calm as we admired the beautiful scenery.
Robin Hood’s Bay
A family day out at the beach.
A Yorkshire gem within our reach,
A special place to walk and paddle,
Kicking the water in the shallows.
On the shore we stood and stare,
Out to sea with the breeze in our hair.
Waves rolling gently on the sand,
The feeling of calm as they land.
We stood in wonder at the view,
A few little boats were bobbing too.
Each breath, medicine to our souls,
A rest for the mind to behold.

Drawing on my degree in Fine Art, I create a charcoal and chalk drawing of the landscape first. I love drawing with charcoal and concentrate on the composition without worrying about colour at this point. I may make several charcoal versions until I am happy with the composition.
When I am happy with the charcoal landscape, I create an oil pastel painting of the same landscape in colour. I do love colour and like to use lots of it. I also love my oil pastels and use them a bit like paint, pushing the pigment around with my fingers during the creation process to create a ‘painterly’ feel to the piece.
This original oil pastel painting would make a beautiful and unique gift for someone who loves Yorkshire, the coast or Robin Hood’s Bay. It could make a special birthday, wedding, Christmas or anniversary gift, or simply be a lovely piece to buy for yourself.
