In these paintings the shore sea, horizon and sky become areas of expressive and evocative colour and texture. The work alludes to the infinite and the immediate in our world and in our minds. Both are a source of wonder.

The Best Policy
Honesty :: This one has got stuck, what I thought would work didn’t. So it has gone on the back burner for a while.
#Twitterartexhib Poster
Arrived back to find post with tax returns and a package from David Sandum in Norway ( @Davidsandumart ). The package contained two beautifully printed posters. One for the current Twitter Art Exhibition and the other for an exhibition of David’s gouache work from Sept 2010.
Difficult choice look through tax returns orput posters from package in to frames.
Result:
Look good in the studio, thanks David.
