Winter Storm

Here is another new painting, again one that I have been coming back to over the last two years or so. We always have terrifically  exciting storms at the far end of Cornwall and the waves crashing against the cliffs can be terrifying at times…..I still cannot resist exploring these winter storms with sketchbooks and working these drawings and sketches into large scale artworks.

Storm Bryher

This is a painting I keep coming back to time and again……inspred from experiences of the winter storms on the Isles of Scilly during several artist in residencies that I took part in through Gallery Tresco on the Isles of Scilly. I first began work on this painting in 2009, it has gone through many stages and on occasion in various exhibitions, but somehow I have always managed to keep it. It is my most favorite painting, and every now and then I will take it of the wall and work a little bit more on it. Like nature it is a work in progress evolving and as ever it remains unfinished.

Sunset – Winter Storm

Welcome to my blog. I am starting this with one of my recent sales. This painting sold to a couple from Wales. The painting came about from my experiences of cycling and walking during this years winter storms along the coast between St Just and Land’s End. If I had to pick a particular place……as I was asked by the couple who bought the painting, then as I said to them it would be Porth Nanven beach which is very close to where I live and the rocks just visible in the foam of the crashing waves are where my children and I can often be found swimming in the summer…….
