Delighted to be part of this group Winter exhibition showing at the "Heart of the Tribe" gallery in Glastonbury England. I'm showing three paintings here and it will hopefully be put online as a virtual show for those not able to attend.
A new painting inspired from this summer's visits to the Devon and Dorset coasts. As the nights draw in this is a reminder of trips taken to these spectacular regions.
From the village of Platanias lying 10km. West of Chania on the island of Crete the route to Therissos takes in the pretty village of Pervolia and the surrounding orange and olive groves set against the stunning backdrop of the "White Mountains" Through the winding Therisso gorge with it's towering cliffs and wild goats you reach the village of Therissos.
The revolution of Crete and it's reunion with Greece, was started here by Eleftherios Venizelos in the 1896 uprising against the Turks, thereby liberating Crete and installing it's own currency and flag before eventually joining the rest of Greece.
This painting depicts the journey and the landscape featuring the fields in the hot summer sun.

A short break earlier this Summer, staying in the pretty Devon village of Stoke Fleming. I made some sketches in my usual small books with notes of some trips I made and some interesting people I met. With trips to the nearby coast and the River Dart I re- visited the parts of the river especially the Naval Academy and Agatha Christie's house - Greenaway.
