Sunday Afternoon Dusk. West Bay, Dorset. Winter afternoon walking along the shore...I notice a family- a toddler and a dog walk across the sky line... Gouache on 300gsm cartridge paper.
Sunset in East Jerusalem. Watercolour on lemon/cream smooth paper. Made on location in 1987...painting in intense heat with watercolour I was using loads of water with the colours so the evaporation would leave dried pools of pale pigment.
This is the view from Durdle Door beach - looking east towards Swyre Head in Lulworth. A tiny oil on paper. Made of two square metal plates. Unmounted and unframed...easy to pop in the post.
This is made with site litter, beach materials, acrylic and watercolour on handmade cotton rag paper. The white of the terns flash brilliant white against the storm. Terns nest in the Chesil shingle just a mile or so behind me. Chiswell parish lies just out of the image behind the Chesil beach, Portland. This painting is framed. Limed ash. Wood…
This image was made during that very quiet sunny spell in the early months of skies without planes when the world quietened. I don't hear cuckoos every year. A joyful moment. It is available from my studio. This is the framed price.

The painting is framed in limed ash and floated. The framing style…

It can be seen in the studio...along with two other pieces made in the same place and included in the gallery below. An ARTCARD featuring this…
A moment when a patch of blue promised better weather to come. The beach is fringed with a rich palette of earths. Most of the pigments here are sourced on site...Ive only added a blue and yellow. This is currently displayed unframed- suspended on a wooden baton - this allows the piece to find its own shape and to have…
