Crow Point Between The Storms.
Mixed media painting using acrylic, watercolour & pastel (530mm x 370mm).
A wonderfully exposed beach and dune area where the rivers Taw & Torridge meet in North Devon. Usually quiet and not too crowded. It’s also a nature reserve and training area for the Royal Marines. It is slowly being eroded by the elements along with its ship wrecks. Please see my The Sea Mack at Crow Point pen and ink drawing. The picture on the left is the home of it’s new owner a perfect setting I think.
Summer Holiday on Saunton Beach.
Pastel drawing of a hot and hazy summers day. Saunton Beach is a wonderfully long stretch a sand on the North Devon Coast, England. Used by surfers, kite surfers, although the carpark is perhaps going to be upping it’s prices.

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.
