ST MICHAEL'S
Size: 25 x 25 inches (including frame)
Acrylic on canvas
A beautifully framed large landscape composition, painted onto canvas by British artist Nicky Knill Jones.
This painting portrays a striking coastal view of St Michael’s Mount in Cornwall. Rendered with expressive, fluid brushwork, the artwork captures the tidal causeway and surrounding seascape under a vast, luminous sky. The distant silhouette of the mount—its castle and chapel just discernible—rises gently from the horizon, serving as a calm focal point against the expanse of water and sky.
Foreground rocks and textured brushstrokes evoke the movement and shimmer of tidal pools and wet sands, with tones of soft blue, white, and muted earth colors suggesting the meeting of land and sea. The composition’s subtle abstraction and cool palette give the piece an ethereal, dreamlike quality, conveying both the isolation and majesty of this iconic Cornish landmark.
The painting is wonderfully presented within a custom tray frame in white which suits it impeccably. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

Her work conveys the raw power and fleeting moments of the natural world, where bold, fresh, and instinctual brushstrokes bring her vision to life.
