The last day

Another view of 'My favourite road' not seen here for a few months. The project finishes today and 200 will be shown at Glyndebourne in October - dates etc to follow. Thanks to all of you that have followed this project over the past year, for your comments and support. Watch out for news of new projects. Over the next few months I am planning some larger landscapes and I aim to complete a life size portrait. (in actual fact I haven't started it yet, so I suppose I should say I aim to START a life size portrait). See you soon in a town near you!

The penultimate day!

I haven't painted a seascape for a while and the sea has been beautiful of late. Actually that's a dumb thing to say - the sea is always beautiful. This is a new version from some studies I did a while ago.RESERVED

Still very hot

Another view of Firle Place near Lewes. This is looking west, in front of the main house.

Hot!

Really hot today and it looks like it's set for the weekend. Beautiful on Eastbourne seafront today. This is the bandstand, looking east.

Near Birling Gap

Whenever I chat with overseas visitors I advise a trip from Eastbourne to East Dean via Beachy Head and Birling Gap. It's such a beautiful drive at any time of the year. Looks like there are exciting developments at Birling Gap with the National Trust taking over the cliff top cafe.

Eastbourne Promenade

Today was a perfect summer day. Warm at 7.30 am and beautiful all day. This is a view of the promenade opposite the TGWU centre.

Building site, Falmer

Looking at the downs through the grid of a security fence. Falmer - midsummer day 2010.
