I have visited Pompeii and Herculaneum twice and found the experience very moving. Plus the accounts by Pliny the Younger at the time portray a most vivid scene and describe how the sea was no refuge from the fiery deluge and choking atmosphere. In this canvas the pigment that I habitually turn to (Paynes Grey) has been transformed by Yellow Ochre into a menacing sea green.I live within a few yards of the seashore and it is a source of wonderment to see the often strange tints and colours that the sea exhibits at different times of day and different weather conditions. I have sprayed this canvas with matt varnish which lends a rather old fashioned, musty aura to the painting. The tones are rich but also restrained by the matt finish.

I have been painting for many decades but have only recently exhibited to a wider public. Previously, exhibitions and sales were at my home and garden studio on Shoreham Beach. Formal artistic education since school started with the Aesthetics course at university and since then continued with lengthy one-to-one contact with artists who have developed specific techniques. The canvases mainly inhabit an area in the interstices between pure abstract and representations of landscapes and seascapes. I aim to create an area in which the viewer can easily develop an individual interpretation of a scene or atmosphere. Hence, my art is more evocative than representational. Important aspects are depth and variety of texture, purity of colour and luminescence. The nearby sea and the ever changing sky above it which are visible from the window have provided a constant inspiration.
