As you can see, he quite likes dogs.

    • The Seagrass
      The Seagrass
      Original oil on board, 35x35cm £495 framed.

      We love to walk the dunes
      on bracing days like these.
      The grass sways to and fro,
      blown by a westerly wind.
    • No Show
      No Show
      Original oil on board, 35x35cm £495 Framed.

      'Let's go to Cromer Pier' he says
      'we can go and see a show'
      but they didn't do doggy tickets
      what to do now? We don't know...

    • The Clam Shells
      The Clam Shells
      Original oil on board 35x35cm £495 framed

      at the waters edge adorn 'em.

      The Rustle
      Original on oil on board 35x35cm £495 framed.

      scrabbling in the reeds.
    • The Floater
      The Floater
      Original oil on board, 60x60cm £970 framed.

      A kindly soul had made it.
      Kind of half bench and half boat.
      It's better as a bench because
      we doubt it would float.
    • Saffron Cottage

      Original oil on Board 21x31cm £395 Framed SOLD

      I sense the guests at Saffron Cottage
      are having kippers for their tea.

      They smell of plastic, mud and brine,

      vindaloo and last night's booze.

      with some beer to watch the match.

      at The North Sea Coffee Co.
