I recently spent a fabulous few days painting the north Cornwall coastline with my good friends David Bachmann, Karl Terry and Tim King. The weather was pretty kind (with the inevitable occasional blip) and I was glad I packed the thermals because on the cliffs it’s still pretty nippy with the winds at this time of year, even when it’s sunny. We stayed at a lovely house in Rock and explored along the coast from Bedruthan Steps up to Trebarwith Strand. There’s so much to explore with endless painting possibilities, it’s always a great treat spending time down there.

With painting pals Tim King (Ieft), David Bachmann and Karl Terry after a sharp shower at Boscastle,
Here are the paintings from the trip and from these I hope to perhaps do one or two larger studio works.
Marvellous selection of pictures David. I’m fascinated by the lose application of paint to create such an effect. You make it look so easy!
Kind regards
Noel
Hi Noel, sorry for the very late reply but I didn’t get notification of your message. Thanks very much for the kind words and the loose application is partly dictated by the circumstances under which they are painted i.e. generally outdoors with a changing subject. It doesn’t seem to get any easier but still highly enjoyable to do :)
