Nerine Tassie's "Catching Light, East Coast" mesmerises with its ethereal portrayal of shoreline dynamics at daybreak or dusk. This mixed media composition on board (55 x 57 cm) captures the magical moment when waves meet shore beneath a rose-tinted sky. Tassie employs a delicate palette of coral pinks, misty blues and seafoam whites to evoke the distinctive atmospheric conditions of Scotland's eastern coastline. The breaking wave, rendered with textural precision, creates a focal point of dramatic energy against the tranquil expanse of sea and sky. Through her masterful layering technique, Tassie achieves a luminous quality that truly embodies the work's title – light seems to be caught within the very fibres of the piece.

Coastal Light: A Sensory Experience
The painting invites viewers into a meditative relationship with the Scottish coastline, evoking not just the visual splendour but also the sensory experience of standing by the sea – the sound of crashing waves, the salt-tinged air, the shifting light. When displayed on a wall, "Catching Light, East Coast" transforms a space with its contemplative presence, creating a window to Scotland's eastern shores that changes subtly with the ambient light throughout the day. This work exemplifies Tassie's remarkable ability to distil fleeting natural moments into compositions that resonate with emotional depth, offering a daily connection to the timeless rhythm and beauty of Scotland's coastal landscapes.
