Near East Dean 3


Well, what a beautiful weekend, particulary Sunday! Walked from East Dean village green up towards Crowlink with fantastic views along the way. This is a painting at the top of the bridle way looking towards Belle Tout and showing the wind-blown trees that are in abundance up here. SOLD

Hastings Pier


I was born in Hastings and looking at this pier is one of my earliest memories. It's a beautiful structure, sadly not in brilliant repair but very good to look at at all times of the year and in all weathers. SOLD

Cuckmere Haven 4


Here's another view of Cuckmere Haven from the road towards Eastbourne. Apparently the hill on the Seaford side of the valley was the scene of a battle some seven hundred years ago. We re-enacted the battle when I was at school back in the late sixties.

Near Birling Gap 3


Another view from the road approaching Birling Gap driving from East Dean village. The first and second Birling Gap paintings have now sold, so - here's hoping! SOLD 11.4.09

Beachy Head 3


Did some 'astral planing' today to get this view of Beachy Head lighthouse. Pretty cold up there today though even though it's been nice and sunny all day!

Beachy Head 2


Another view of Beachy Head, this time an imagined aerial view. The hedges and roads make a fascinating pattern when viewed from above and it's interesting to note that until just a few hundred years ago there was forest almost right to the waters edge. SOLD
