The contrast of the cool shades in this painting compared to the other painting of Duck’s Crossing offers an opportunity to see how often a location changes in its light and tone. Painted 2013.

this small staithe still offers a great deal to look at, from the wild fowl to the changing water levels and colours. There is always something to look at here. Painted 2013.

This painting reminded me of a poem I read by Lord Alfred Tennyson, I wrote it on the back of the canvas:   ‘He rose at dawn and fired with hope, shot o’er the seathing harbour-bar, and reach’d the ship and caught the rope, and whistled to the morning star.’

This barn is in the village of Trunch, I enjoy painting it very much. I enjoyed walking past it early one morning, the sunrise was lovely.

I don’t usually like bright summer colours in a painting, but this scene was so lovely I had to paint it as it was. I like the wet sand especially.
