1. Fishing Boats St Ives.
The boats in St Ives have been a popular image for many artists and shapes are created as the line of fishing boats settle on the sand as the tide goes out.

A unique setting as the river Teign curves around the town creating views across to Shaldon.

3. Houses by Teignmouth Docks
The view of the docks and the houses climbing the hill create a pattern of rooves and chimneys.

4.View of Teignmouth.
Standing on the Salty looking towards the New Key Inn by the docks. The fishing boat is landing it's catch at the key. The buildings create a patchwork of shapes with shadows adding depth to the composition.

5. Ferry at back beach Teinmouth.
This view is full of summer action with people catching the Ferry and enjoying the Sun. This makes a complex composition with a great opportunity to play with colour, texture and form.

6. Tenders.
These small tenders are being pushed by the tide and I have tried to suggest this in the handling of the paint.

9. Low Tide Gampton Creek.
We have a small sailing boat on the river Dart and I have spent many happy hours drawing the scene at different states of the tide.

Started this picture at a Demo last Night. Have worked on it today adding more detail and changed some parts to improve the composition. Hope you like it!
