'West of Here' and other original paintings...

Very windy in St Ives today, with sunshine, showers and spectacular surf at Porthmeor Beach, daunting to all but the most experienced surfers.

Here are some views of the surf from the safety of shore....

Big and small original paintings....

Had so much fun painting the first two artworks (shown below)
which were prompted by the fear that continual painting in oil on small boards was making my work too tight.

Also, the last two very large commissions in oil on canvas completed last year were a struggle and soooo time consuming, which I have attributed to the lack of speedy, loose gestural under painting in acrylic, which were a feature of earlier large compositions.

'Sea Mist Offshore, Porthmeor'
acrylic on deep edge canvas, 30 x 80 cm.

Beach, Action and Shadow'
acrylic/acrylic gels on chunky deep edge canvas, 50 x 50 cm.
