'Godrevy Cliffs' and other small paintings on board....

So nice to post fairly early in September, which hopefully compensates for the fact that I didn't blog last month!  Always a busy time to be an artist in St Ives (and that's not a complaint, thanks to all who buy my work) this August saw visits from both daughters, son-in-law and dogs, plus a lovely reunion/get-together of sorts, with the upshot that all painting projects were suspended for around 2 weeks!  Wouldn't have missed it though and the weather was pretty good too. Normal service resumed eventually and here some new and older works. I have also been working on some slightly larger paintings in oil on hardboard, some of which are already at the framers and will provide content for a future post x    'Beach, Good Weather Chases the Rain Away' oil on board, 13.5 x 13.5 cm. SOLD 'Godrevy Cliffs' oil on board, 13.5 x 13.5 cm. SOLD 'September Sea' oil on board, 13.5 x 13.5 cm. SOLD 'Summer Warmth an
