Rain, Rain and Rainbows...

The rain goes on, fortunately punctuated with sunlight to give us some joy - in the form of rainbows. Inspirational and not easy to portray, I have made a start, undeterred by the job in hand. Practice makes perfect, right?

All unframed as yet.

'Choppy Sea and Rainbow' oil on board, 13.5 x 13.5 cm. SOLD

'Surf and Rainbow' oil on board, 13.5 x 13.5 cm. SOLD
Now framed and residing at Art Space Gallery, St Ives.

'Rainbow on the Horizon' oil on board, 14 x 10 cm, mounted

And two larger works (without rainbows).

'Men Scryfa after Stubble Burning'

oil on hardboard, 19.5 x 20.5 cm.

This is part of an old painting cut down for repainting. The new composition works so much better than the original ever did and has been enlivened by the addisiton of some light impasto.

'Sun on the Sand'

oil on hardboard, 19.5 x 20.5 cm.
