'Coast' paintings

I have just completed a set of new pictures of some of my favourite areas of the North East coast. I have used pastels as they easily convey atmospheric perspective in colour,tone, and an interesting contrast between opaque and clear pigment.

These pictures are to be used in the Art Tour of 2013 held by Network Artists of Northumberland of which I am a member.

I will be exhibiting in this event with two other artists in the ''Shopping Mall ''at Whitley Bay.

 

Dates and times ;-  Sat 1st. and  Sun 2nd.,      8th and 9th.,       15th. and 16th.  June 

                               Between 10.00 a.m. and 4.00 p.m.
