SAUNTON SANDS

Saunton Sands painted on Bockingford paper using natural pigments found at Fremington Quay in North Devon. Amongst the rocks and strata at Fremington are various pigments including the usual Bideford Black, which I usually get from Greencliff at Abbotsham, a blackish colour called Poor Man’s Coal, Yellow OchreBurnt UmberWhite Clay and Grey. I collect these pigments for further preparation where I finely ground them and use them for my paintings!
