Seascapes

In July 2024 I spent three days at the Newlyn School of Art for a course in expressive landscapes. We were taken to explore the Pendeen peninsular looking down at rocky headlands, into Boat Cove, and a view from a beacon. From there we could look across at a typical Cornish landscape with a mixture of fields and moorland.

Although my work is still representative, I have been enjoying the seascapes using glazing and layering of textures.

I started with quite small sketches, worked up into finished paintings. Then went onto two A1 sized paintings on cradled board of St Abb's Head, Berwickshire, and Man O'War Bay, Dorset.
