Solitude 7  forms a part of my Vessels Collection – initially inspired by boatworks in St Ives Harbour where I live and work. It is the latest work in the Solitude series of the Vessels works.

It is made from acrylics, copper, sand, wax, rust and resin on canvas, and is mounted and framed in a white wood float frame.

The show opened on Friday 26th July and ends on Saturday 24th August 2024.

Sanctuary 1 is from my recent Vessels series inspired by boatworks in St Ives Harbour. The artworks meld the natural and man-made landscapes I encountered on my daily walks at that quiet, strange time in lockdown 2020. They reflect what remains of the fishing industry and the almost eerie sense of stillness and calm that descended upon St Ives. This one is the first entitled Sanctuary and is an abstraction of weathered boats in the Harbour.  By the time I painted this, the town had filled up with tourists over the summer and was just starting to empty again as the second wave of Covid-19 began to strike. St Ives was becoming my sanctuary again.

It is acrylics and mixed media on canvas board, mounted and framed in white frame, 60cm x 60cm (image is 40cm x 40cm) – £500

The show runs from 7th November 2020 – 9th January 2021
