They get everywhere, Derek... Like your transparent colours, well representing the warmth of the day and scene: a good way to remember it, and better than a photograph (or a photographic treatment).

Nice painting. Don't go to the Lake District what ever you do. In the summer it's like Tokyo.

Great painting, Derek. Did the "7 elderly Japanese tourists" ask you to take their photo?

Thanks Gudrun, Carole and Ellen. No they completely ignored me thanks goodness.

Notwithstanding the foreign distractions, that's a cracker, Derek - it's full of immediacy and atmosphere. I say that a lot about your paintings, but it's true!

Been away in north Norfolk for a few days and got a few pieces done. This is at Blakeny and the whole damn place was blocked with foreigners!

About the Artist

Derek Snowdon

Eleventyeight as my hashing pals called my new age recently, it's supposed to sound better. Trying to paint every day in acrylics using only expired credit/debit cards, and partially succeeding as they're only for me and not show these days.
