Welcome to our
July Shows
It gives me immense pleasure to introduce this wonderful collection of work. The
’’
contributing artists have been moved to
great things, showcasing the islands and
their own unique talent in equal measure.
This tiny archipelago has inspired,
impassioned and elucidated the finest
response from all. Nature at its most
sublime has been captured; a sense of freedom made tangible, leaving the
viewer with a wistful longing, a desire to
experience the magic of the islands again.

This is an experimental year.
I wanted to introduce a new style
and some figurative work.

My trip to Scilly this year coincided
with a super low spring tide revealing
sands that normally lie beneath the
sea. I was able to wander down the
channel and stand on seabed that is
not usually accessible.
Northerly winds blew over an array
of cloud formations that fleetingly
cast shadows on the white sand and
turquoise water.

These works are a spontaneous
reflection of a natural environment in
swift climatic swirl. Places that inspire
the darting movement of light, the
’’
fleeting glimpses of colour. Hence my
attraction to islands; islands in which
the congregation of sky, sea and land
manifest themselves in a heady
symphony and the lusty harmony of
blossoms awaken the senses. Tresco is one such, brooding in sanguine
revolt, imbued with mystic
associations of ancient civilisation and
thrumming with theatrical flourish. It is an historic sense of nature unfurling.

Paintings, at best, speak for
themselves. What they say depends
on what we feel when we look at
them, and if we look at them with our
hearts and souls, as well as with our
eyes. I try to paint with my heart and
soul too, which isn’t difficult when the
subject is Tresco.

Painting everyday is almost as essential
to me as eating and sleeping! In fact I
’’
find myself sleeping less these days! Which suits me fine as I get so much
done in the early hours. I am a messy
worker, using oils to their maximum
potential, layer after layer, scraping and
adding more layers! I use pallet knives,
brushes, fingers and oil bar. This is all
done rapidly so as not to lose the
spontaneity and to capture the beautiful chaos that is our living landscape.

Tresco never fails to inspire with its
unique and contrasting landscapes.
It is always a joy to reconnect with it on
my painting visits and I hope this year’s
collection of paintings reflects this.

I have long loved Tresco Abbey
Garden ... who would not. It's a
haven of peace and quiet in this
troubled world. I was there in
November, the flowers were
blooming and the sun was shining
... a glimpse of summer in winter.

Painting on Tresco in mid March was so lovely as I experienced the whole range of weather as well as the off season calm. I decided this time to
’’
study colour predominantly - a decision inspired by my many trips to the Abbey Gardens. The Majorelle blue plays a significant role in this series of paintings and really caught my attention during my stay. The muted backdrops are often greys and darker blues, but the vivid colours are always present, even on the dullest of early spring days.
