Michael Sanders has built a reputation as a successful landscape artist. He has painted in Sienna, Florence and Paris but  is inspired by the UK's very special coastline environment. The ever changing colours of the sea, sky and light provide endless subject matter for his paintings of beaches and harbours. He is particularly adept at capturing the glistening light of the beach at low tide and often places figures in the landscape, either a lone dog walker, a family or a large group. Its a touch that adeptly connects the viewer to the scene at hand.
