I’ve been using the relatively quiet period since my King’s Lynn solo exhibition in September, to experiment with a few abstracts and also to develop my visual language, my mark making, in the process. 

The one above and one below left, are part of a series inspired by the north Norfolk salt marsh coast, two of which recently sold from Thompsons Gallery in Aldeburgh, Suffolk.

abstract photography from my recent trip to Cornwall – St Ives, Newlyn, Cape Cornwall. Hope you enjoy browsing the images as much as I enjoyed taking them.

… it would be great to see you at my upcoming solo exhibition ‘Coastlines’, which will be showing at Greyfriars Art Space, King’s Lynn, Norfolk, from 27 September to 11 October 2014.

The theme is inspired by my residency at Brison’s Veor, Cape Cornwall earlier this year and contrasts that wild, rugged coast with the very different North Norfolk coastline close to where I live, and where, as regular followers of this blog will know, I often walk, sketch and paint along the saltmarshes and beaches.

On the opening Saturday (29thSeptember) I’ll be having a ‘bit of a do’ between 12 noon and 4pm to launch the exhibition, with wine and nibbles, you’d be very welcome!
