Leaden Hall Summer Exhibition

Friday sees the opening of the Leaden Hall Summer Exhibition in Salisbury. I will have several paintings in the show including the two shown here.
Salisbury Cathedral
Salisbury Cathedral

The view of the cathedral across the Harnham Watermeadows was painted on the 19th of March 2009 especially for the show. It is painted in oil on stretched Belgian linen canvas and measures 51 x 60 cm (20 x 24 inches).

Blue Sky

Itchenor is a lovely location in West Sussex on the eastern edge of Chichester Harbour. A great place to watch to boats and birds on the estuary. The painting above is in oil on board and measures 25.5 x 30 cm (10 x 12 inches).

Pembrokeshire 4 @ 4 x 10

I have just returned from a 10 day painting trip to the wonderful Pembrokeshire Coast National Park in Wales. The weather ranged from wet and windy to glorious sunshine. I was able to get useful work done everyday, returning with more than 30 pictures, although I will only frame a fraction of these. Here are four of the smallest paintings from the trip. They are all in oil on board and measure 10 x 25 cm or 4 x 10 inches. As usual they were all completed on the spot.

You can click each of them to view the full size image or why not try out the slideshow link below. To return to this page from the Piclens viewer click on the link at the top left.

I am busy this week collecting frames and delivering paintings to different exhibitions but I will post more paintings of the Pembrokeshire coast as I get organised.

Pembrokeshire Coast

Painting at Newgale, Pembs.
Painting at Newgale, Pembs.

I have just returned from a very wet and windy week painting in Pembrokeshire, south west Wales. The coastline here is stunningly beautiful with long sandy beaches and rugged cliffs. Despite the wild weather I got plenty of painting done, much of it while sheltering behind the open tailgate of my car. The picture above is 8 x 36 inches (approx. 20 x 90 cm) and was painted with the easel resting in the boot. To see the painting in more detail, click on the image below.
