Recently I was in Venice, gathering ideas for a series of paintings for my exhibition in the West End, at the David Messum Gallery in St James, opening on 4th September 2024. We had brilliant sunlight for most of the time, then came torrential rains and St Mark’s Square was flooded to a depth of several feet. We wore plastic high waders and while I splashed around, making drawings and notes, I was able to capture the magnificent façade of St Mark’s Basilica with its reflections in the flooded square.

Cornwall-
The Cornish coastline is very much a continuation of Devon’s coastal edge, but here, particularly on the north coast, the inlets are often narrower, and villages rise steeply up the valleys. In summer, when the tourists flock to this ever-narrowing peninsula, I tend to stay away, but out of season, when the land is left mainly to the locals, it is a joy to explore and make the drawings from which these paintings emerge.
