"Quiet Cove"

9 x 6 inches oil on panel £100

" September brings empty beaches and quiet coves. These two young shell seekers were blissfully searching the sand for their pieces of tide-strewn treasure."

" Late Summer "

9 x 6 inches oil on panel £100

" Last of the summer flowers, giving there warmth to the end of Summer, quieter beaches and a calmness to all things."

" Down the Valley "

9x 6 oil on panel £100

I painted this from the patio of " Greenacres" bed and breakfast here in Woolacombe , it has a stunning view down the valley, and on this morning it was especially pleasing. i started with an underpainting of mid-purple and then built up to the lights from the darks. It had a really tranquil feeling to it , especially as out of shot to the right, queues of beachgoers in their cars snaked down the hillside road to fill the beach carpark. One of this Summer's beautiful warm days.

Despite the grey and gloomy weather visiting our shores at the moment, I still managed to catch a few glorious sunsets last month, this was one such. I primed the board with a greyed up purple and pre-mixed a batch of colour at speed from sight. The application went on super fast, as anyone know who has tried to paint a sunset live, it sinks into the sea at warp speed. Very challenging, extremely intense, fast painting, great fun!
