A sketch made from a low viewpoint on the 'Umberleigh'. It shows the trough of a wave at eye level. Everett has used form and colour to achieve the desired effect. Short, thickly applied and variously coloured brushstrokes indicate the movement of the waves shown breaking on the left of the image. The sky is tinted with yellow and streaked red above the cloud line. The sun is just visible through the pink. Everett sailed in the steamer 'Umberleigh' from Barry, Wales, to Vancouver, Canada, in December 1933 and returned in March 1934. Everett later observed that from four days out from Barry, they saw the sun every day of the trip as far as the Panama Canal. This meant that there was plenty of colour, light and effects for him to capture in paint.
