During the lockdown of 2020, one of the things I missed the most was being able to be at the seaside. This poem by John Masefield is an appropriate title and theme for a book expressing my longing for the sea.
Inspired by a visit to a disused Lisbon power station which has now been repurposed as a visitor space.

My paintings are often made en plein air, especially the oil paintings. They often relate to the sea. Sometimes I include found objects in the images or paint on found boards. These first two were painted during a visit to Port Seton, East Lothian and a stay on the south Kent coast.
This painting was made en plein air at Port Seton Harbour in East Lothian, down the coast from Edinburgh.
Beachcombing finds are sometimes incorporated into work. Here the piece of timber resembled a boat. A found text and collaged screenprints were used to complete the assemblage.
