Peyton Skipwith comments that 'Eurich analysed and developed his extraordinary ability to paint the sea, especially the English Channel, in all it's moods and in all weathers. As he recalled, he immersed himself completely in "the problems" of how to paint the sea, by which he meant "the structure of water, not just the sea as blue background with landscapes and harbours as the main feature"' (E. Chaney & C. Clearkin, Richard Eurich (1903- 1992) Visionary Artist, London, 2003, pp. 58 and 59).
