January 2021 Lockdown Paintings

Hello lovely people!

Here we are still in January, still in lock down and still missing our friends and family. But, alongside all this, there is a beautiful world out there that I have loved spending time in, walking, taking photos and then spending days, painting!

  • Weathered Coastal trees in Winter
  • The Pepperpot overlooking Bude Beaches.

So my collection of oil paintings / Acrylic painting framed in box white frames is growing and they are a real reminder of the colours around us. I have some new fish swirl paintings that I am planning but I tried this week to literally paint what I had taken the photos of on my walks. The Iconic Pepperpot over looking Sumerleaze beach in Bude and onto Crooklets, Northcott, Sandymouth and beyond and a wonderful view of the Bude Sea Pool through the bramble hedge overlooking Summerleaze beach leading up to The Pepperpot!

I have also painted a beautiful fish swirl with the colours of winter, frost and snow, grey skies and then the bronze, gold glow of winter sunshine when it makes it through the cloud.

I am soon to be part of the most exciting Gallery and shop opening at the Bayview Inn, Widemouth Bay and will share all the exciting things that will be happening there a bit later in the year….basically as soon as Boris opens the country up again !

I have almost finished a large commission for a customer and hes a beaut! I’ll share full details on my next blog with you but have attached a sneak preview of the beautiful Lobster I have been working on. Hes a hug 140cm tall !

February is just around the corner, take care everyone and stay safe.

Living by the North Cornwall Coastline my artworks are inspired by the colours that surround me. I have always loved to paint, draw, illustrate from a really young age. I studied art at school and college but most of what I have done and continue to do, is self taught, making for an exciting journey. Having spent the last 40 years living in Devon and Cornwall I have been lucky enough to have been surrounded by wonderful countryside, coastlines, friends and family. The last 22 years I have lived in Cornwall with my husband Paul, and our four sons. There is something about the coastline that is totally captivating. The changing colours, the sky, the sea, the sunsets, the storms. The iconic weathered coastline trees, facing the weathers together or alone, each day brings a new inspiration. The beauty of my unique artworks is using the colours around me to produce mesmerizing fish swirls and fish waves. Walking, taking photos, breathing the air in and losing myself in stunning scenery is the start to a new original artwork or commission piece. My art emerges from the blank canvas, the detail, the movement and the colours.
