Just a warm, gentle breeze enables the bunting to wave gently and the flags to flap. It's such a great start to a beautiful day!

Eastbourne Pier

July 7, 2015

A few days ago I meant to share a photo of the start of my latest venture - but I got carried away and it's fairly near completion. This time I've used acrylics to try to do justice to Kay Fenton's amazing photo of Eastbourne pier. I Iove Kay's photo especially because of the hint of rainbow. But please don't look for it as it's not there yet!

Butterfly Meadow

July 7, 2015
Here is the fifth picture in the 'Butterfly Kaleidoscopes' series. This one is called 'Butterfly Meadow' and it joins "Butterfly Treasure', 'Butterfly Moon', 'Butterfly Sunset' and 'Butterfly Winter'. I finished 'Butterfly Meadow' some time ago but have only just got around to putting it up. It will be available in 16" x 12" and 20" x 16" frame sizes, mounted or framed. I'll also soon be posting a whole set of Butterfly Miniature pictures. Watch this space! - Phil


 

Bobbing Boats, Tenby

June 24, 2015

A new painting! 'Bobbing Boats, Tenby' 

Tenby's colourful beauty never fails to inspire me. This time i've tried to capture the movement I saw within and on the water. The boats were bobbing cheerfully on the choppy surface of the sea and I could glimpse many pinkish fish below the surface.

Dreamy days spent sailing serenely and silently along this wandering watercourse lift lilting spirits! - Julia x


 

'Home' - new painting by Julia Hawker

Your home? My home? The pictorial and literal references could lead you to one or both of these conclusions. If you know me well, you'll recognise a few references! - Julia x

 

A new artist on Summerlands Art

March 8, 2015



We are delighted to welcome another artist to Summerlands Art. Her name is Margaret Godwin and she lives in Eastbourne. This is what Margaret writes about her painting:

'I love the vibrancy of colour, contrast of light and shade and conveying atmosphere. My work has included portraits, landscapes and animals, with some commissioned paintings of favourite scenes, and wildlife. I am also happy to take commissions, using good quality photos from customers or from my own photos.'

You can see Margaret's paintings here
