Magical and with real beauty Thea

Thank you very much Beatrice, Dennis and Glennis for such nice comments. The boats and harbour scene has really put me in the mood for my seaside holiday in Devon next week. Can't wait!

Will be looking forward to seeing more from your holiday.

Oh Thea this is so jolly!

Lovely cascading composition.

Thank you very much Gudrun, Kevin, Carole and David - I appreciate your kind comments. I am taking my sketchbooks and paints to Devon but with 4 grandchildren accompanying me, doing anything is going to be a challenge. However, I will try hard as I would love to come home with a few sketches done to remind me of what I am sure will be a happy week.

Such a lovely typically seaside painting Thea! Jolly boats, buoys, and those quirky little cars all painted in your own happy style. Have a lovely holiday in Devon, hope you manage to grab an hour or two to yourself to do some more!

Smashing little sketch Thea of a place I recognise. Like the addition of the cars which make it more real somehow, they get everywhere! Good bright colour as well.

Lovely sunny scene, done with your signature pen and jewel-like washes. Have a great time, hope its this sunny for you.

I love this, Thea! It's a quintessential Cornwall scene, but infused with your inimitable style. I really like how you created the line of vision all the way from the buoys in the foreground to the boats and up the cliff with the ladder, and tying all the parts together with your gorgeous, jewel-like washes. It's fabulous!

Such a charming seaside watercolour, Thea. It has got a lovely composition, beautiful bright colours and it's a real treat to look at.

Someone described this as jolly and I think that's spot on. The British seaside and it's holiday season, can almost hear the seagulls!

It's all been said! Having trouble with my internet connection so only now able to post!

Another little beauty Thea

Lovely work Thea .Enjoy your holidays .

Hi Thea, I was looking back at one of my previous posts and noticed a comment by DAC DAC which I hadn&#39;t noticed before, but it was one of your comments. You seem to have acquired a new name on POL! I assume it isn&#39;t intended as some kind of pseudonym!<br /><br />By the way, I love this painting of yours - didn&#39;t notice it at the time.

I was just getting my sketchbooks ready to take on holiday, when I discovered this pen and wash I did a little while ago. I never got around to posting it for some reason, but I thought now would be a good time with the seaside challenge theme going on.

About the Artist
Thea Cable

I am a watercolourist first and foremost as I love the qualities of the medium, its riskiness and unpredictability. I started painting about 8 years ago and it has now become an integral part of my life. Hopefully, I will continue to paint into my dotage as I am given to understand that you can…
