ALONG THE DAISY PATH TO THE FULL MOON. March 2020. Above Bats Head, Lulworth, Dorset. Gouache and site earths on handmade cotton rag paper. I walked my way up the hill as the moon rose through an avenue of daisies that were not there on the way down... mysterious - a touch of magic that I have not sought to…
...a beautiful clear summer dawn... settled weather. The caravans are perched high towards the sun. I'm still in the shade. (diptych) Site debris and watercolour on handmade cotton rag paper. 44x16cm. This is the framed price. Unframed an option. Pleased contact for unframed price.
This began in 2011 in a portrait format. I returned with the piece along the same shoreline over time. It is a constantly mobile bit of coast so it seemed absolutely appropriate to 'over-write' radically according to the conditions. The surface has heavy impasto and is deeply scored...material has been removed as well as added. Currently displayed on a wooden…
Eype beach looking west has some extravagant sweeps and dips...at first light the sun just touches the headlands...it doesn't last long. The rest of the coast is in night shadow. Diptych. Handmade cotton rag paper. This is currently displayed unframed- suspended on wooden batons - this allows the piece to find its own shape and to have no glass interference...do…

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.

Limed ash with wooden slip limed floated on foamcore on acid free board. If postage is required I will discuss options.

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…
This piece is brightly lit... with the red and white chalk of those remarkable cliffs at Old Hunstanton buoyant under a cloudless sky. The coarse matter in the foreground is littered with falls...Carr stone beneath the chalk is coarser than the chalk...this is a constantly mobile coastline. The binding medium here is true gesso (rabbit skin size and chalk)...I've added…
Ladram Red, Sidmouth, Devon. Medium: Otter Sandstone, Mercia Mudstone and gouache on handmade cotton rag paper. Ladram Bay has some beautiful triassic sea stacks- here they are with a touch of cobalt turquoise...if you begin to climb towards Sidmouth and look down and back into the bay a cove reveals itself partially. Access is difficult except from the sea. The water…
