Cadgwith cottage and boats
Size: 31 x 51 cm
Status: For Sale
Price: £150
Cadgwith, on the Lizard peninsula of Cornwall, is almost unrealistically picturesque. A tiny harbour village (still with a small fishing fleet) with its many close-clustered thatched cottages and narrow lanes filled with fishing gear. About the only place I could find enough space to set up my easel was on the beach, which had this marvellous view. I spoke to the fishermen there, who said I'd be okay on this spot for a couple of hours before some boats came back in (they were quite chatty about the painting) and I really enjoyed this painting, done in full sun and with some gusto!
