to the South West coastline. In this contemplative composition, Hoskin captures the gentle rise of the coastal path as it leads the eye towards the distant headland of Start Point, softened by shifting cloud and pale coastal light.

The foreground is alive with wild grasses and soft summer flowers, rendered with Hoskin’s signature fine brushwork and layered glazes. These details create a sense of immediacy and movement, contrasting beautifully with the calm sweep of sea and sky beyond. The muted palette—greens, ochres, soft blues and warm earth tones—evokes the quiet poetry of the British shoreline and exemplifies the subtlety found in the finest Contemporary British Art.

Collectors value Hoskin’s ability to translate the experience of walking the coastal path into paintings that feel both expansive and intimate. This piece, with its harmonious balance of detail and atmosphere, is a standout example of her mature and highly recognisable style.
