Storm, Porth Cwyfan

WILLIAMS, John Kyffin

The bay of Porth Cwyfan is on Anglesey, where Kyffin Williams lived from the 1970s until his death. The painting displays Williams’s well-known technique, that of thick, monochrome impasto, broadly applied with a palette knife. It is used here to evoke the drama of a rough sea.
