Two Tubs Inn, Bury

Well it's been a while since I updated the blog so here I am with a painting of the Two Tubs in Bury Lancashire which I have entered for sale at the forthcoming exhibition in aid of Bury Hospice in the town.

Hi again. Here is a little painting completed recently while sat on the car park in this pleasant North Norfolk town. Do hope you like it.

Peel Tower from Queens Place Summerseat

Hi I decided to paint a local scene today. Hope you like it! I think it has some good points.

Low Tide

Hi Each

Not painted anything for a while but inspired seeing a picture from my collection of photographs of boats and mountains I produced this simple little watercolour on the back of a failed one !

Summerseat Post Office

Today I started and finished a painting of a subject I agreed to have a try at for a customer of the Hamers Arms Summerseat who had seen one of my paintings that is on display there. It features the small Post Office in India Street Summerseat which unfortunately is now closed but was very well run and appreciated by a local character called George who now resides next door. I do hope she likes it !

Hi I spent a day painting and chatting with my friend Trevor Lingard and produced two rubbish (gloupers) but he did encourage me to paint more often so I did these two over the next two days which I quite like and made me forget the gloupers. The top one has John Yardley type Boats and Edward Wesson type houses and the rest is all my own work :-)

Ceret South of France

These are watercolours painted from photographs I took while on holiday last year in the delightful town of Ceret where many famous artists including Piccaso worked. I was trying to create the atmosphere of the dark street cafe culture caused by high close buildings and the high canopy of trees.
