Cottage in Wales

Lost and found

Here is photo of an old seaside  painting I did many years ago thatI found lurking in my old studio when I recently  visited it down in Wales.
Painted on a wooden panel,the damp and mould had worked its way through the paint so I naughtily gave it a good scrub with washing up liquid !! Dont do this at home folks...... Different colours to my usual..the camera has flattered it somewhat......Well,maybe.

SCRAPBOOK 20....The Saturday Shop


During the sixties we ran a shop just off the Portobello Road.Mostly pine furniture and what we called "Snob Junk"Victoriana clocks,toys,lamps etc.Was fun for a while then that sort of stuff got overpriced for .our sort of customer (flat dwellers)and the market just became a tourist joint.
So we fled London
for the rural
life

By the sea

An old 1960s painting I did in the sixties...Dont think it has any deep meaning or even any artistic  merit but I quite like the colour so it has stayed on my walls all this time.

Glass painting

Cant remember when I did it.
