Beautiful sea today. Quite calm but with dramatic breakers. I find that whenever I paint the sea I feel a strong desire to see the film 'Riding Giants', generally thought to be the best surf movie EVER. If you haven't seen it, Video Shack in Eastbourne Old Town have it to rent.

On July 1st 2009, Sussex artist Julian Sutherland-Beatson began a year long project creating 365 original paintings of the Sussex landscape and seashore. He has been creating a 'daily painting' since April 2008 (see link below) and the project has attracted interest from all media: web, print, radio and TV. Sussex 365 is a continuation of that project.
NEWS - The final collection was shown at Glyndebourne Opera House (near Lewes) in October. Thanks to all of you who were able to come along to visit.
