Sorry I only know a couple artistic photographers locally, and vaguely at that so I’m not sure they’re any use.

Bleak Lines.

The view from my bedroom window - a harsh November morning a couple of years ago. A fantastic hoar frost and a light dusting of snow revealed the contours and tracks on the field in an opalescent light.

The only media off limits to me is acrylic because I’m allergic to it! I mostly paint oils, watercolour and digitally. I draw with graphite and chalk and occasionally work in clay.

Cromer Crab.
Oil on panel, 35cm x 35cm.
I love Cromer, it’s the perfect seaside town.

Thank you!

Snippet of a work in progress- in my happy place 🙂

Thank you!

I’m thrilled to have been asked to exhibit 5 paintings at The Gallery, Holt’s “One Earth” exhibition running until July 8. All works are landscapes local to me under threat from global warming. I’m in exceedingly good company so the exhibition is well
worth a visit.

Thanks!

Here’s a “tinker in progress” - I change the sky once a week. The place is the amazing salt marsh at Stiffkey looking towards the pines at Wells-Next-Sea, in autumn.

I’ll keep going until I’m satisfied. Today the sky is boiling.
Stiffkey Blues, oil on linen board.

Ranworth Mollis

These wonderful fluffy seed heads of hemp-agrimony inspired me to paint another Ranworth scene, just down the road from me and a favourite place

Kings Fleet, Surlingham Broad.

One of those hidden beautiful places, only accessible by kayak or dinghy at high tide. A thin space, save for the distant background noises of water frolics and diesel trains. Oil on canvas, 40cm x 30cm.

The Pea Harvesters, Runham Swim.

If at first you don’t succeed, tinker with it some more! I change this painting every six months as I’m never happy with it, but I just maybe now. I’ll see how I feel in another six months!
