The Sea Mack at Crow Point.
Pen & Ink drawing of the Sea Mack. The wrecked ship lies at Crow Point in North Devon and is gradually deteriorating under the exposed beach and heavy tides. Soon to be no more I think. In colour the boat is brightly coloured with many coats of paint. Not a lot is know about this boat and it is referred to as, a fishing boat, a barge and a ferry tug. If anyone has any more information I’d love to know it’s full history.
This pen and ink illustration is now a signed print and is available from albrownartist.com.

Another mixed media of Saunton Beach in North Devon (820mm x 430mm). With distant storm clouds over Bideford Bar and Westward Ho.
Surfing at Saunton Beach.
Oil pastel on coloured paper. It’s a little like trying to paint with lipstick. (630mm x 480mm)
Pilton Church.
Pilton Church February 2014. My local church just behind where I live and twice a week we hear the bells. Not a religious person but I love walking around the old graveyard here. I am still trying to find a printer/scanner big enough to manage this picture. My intention is to make a run of limited additions.
With my more Buddhistic and Eastern beliefs I’ve managed to incorporate a rather nice OM into the evergreen tree on the left.
The Gateway To The Coast.
Pen & Ink drawing of wind blown trees by an old gate at the top of North Lane nr Georgham, North Devon. Along this road you can visit some the finest beaches in the UK. Croyde, Putsborough, Woolacombe and Saunton. This is now in print as a limited addition.
