A rapid sketch in the Bay of Biscay, from the 'Umberleigh'. Everett has concentrated on the visual harmony of the tonal depiction of calm sea and sky. The effect is achieved by a thin wash of paint in shades of grey and lilac and green. Everett sailed in the steamer, 'Umberleigh', from Barry, Wales, to Vancouver, Canada, in December 1933 and returned in March 1934. Everett later observed that 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. However, once they passed through the Canal the weather deteriorated the closer they got to Vancouver. Apart from the oil paintings made on this voyage, Everett also produced 75 watercolour sketches of the Panama Canal.
