Walk on Water- A view from the waters edge at The Palais

Walk on Water captures a serene summer moment on the Beaulieu River, where three elegant yachts glide across shimmering waters beneath a luminous sky.

 Created by acclaimed en plein air artist Paula Mitchell, this 45 x 55 cm oil on panel demonstrates her masterful ability to translate observed light and atmospheric conditions into compelling visual narratives.

 Mitchell's work is distinguished by her keen sensitivity to the interplay of colour and reflection, evident here in the sun's dance across the water's surface.

An elected Associate Member of the Royal Society of Marine Artists and multi-award winner with the Federation of British Artists, Mitchell brings considerable technical skill and artistic vision to her coastal subjects. This piece exemplifies her distinctive approach to capturing the vitality of her surroundings with expressive clarity.
