Not easy to spot sometimes...there are always one or two more in the group when they fly off in alarm. The orange beaks give them away. This was painted on a flat stone found on the beach. A piece of iron too...the binding medium is rabbit skin size. True gesso involving chalk with the size forms the base upon which…
Site earths and gouache on card. Deeply encrusted with traces of visits. Material added and material taken away. This piece is not framed. I can arrange for framing - this will be £520 framed.
GOLDEN CAP ESTATE STORM. Fleetingly golden. This was returned to the site on several occasions and finally I held this moment. A patch of blue. Displayed on a baton system in which one wooden baton is attached to the wall with a screw. The painting is attached to MDF. Another baton (attached to the back of the painting) sits on…
Eype is absolutely full of delicious local earths...and fragments of litter. I enjoyed the energy of the gorse yellow. This is currently displayed framed.

Made using traditional true gesso (animal protein size and chalk) on a recovered piece of wood from the site. This is slowly built up in many layers integrating site material (horned poppy seeds for example) and watercolour. The surface is sealed to protect the sensitive surface from humidity and dust. I have chosen to present this simply mirror plated on…
MACKEREL MOON Sitting on the edge of the beach with Weymouth in the top right corner, the Chesil sweeps away and I wait for the moon to appear. I see the sky warm almost imperceptably before it eases into visibility. I'm drawn awake by the energy of the full moon...the moment the moon begins to wane I can feel it.…
The starlings curl in from the sea and their movement lifts to mirror the contours of the shingle. Currently unframed. The cost of postage is not included in this price.

The local ravens are not frequently nearby. They reside in the maritime pines above the shore...present more often by their voice. This painting is framed: size 38x31cm. Limed ash. Floated in box frame. I'm happy to send a photo of the presentation. The cost of postage is not included in this price. I'll be in touch to discuss options.
True gesso, watercolour with site earths on handmade cotton rag paper. 14x19cm paper size. The white of the terns was so very different to the white waves. I could hear them calling to each other across the harbour...thanks to the quiet during 'lockdown'. The painting is framed and on view in the studio.
