perranuthnoe tamarisks picture

Perranuthnoe, half an hour from my studio, is one of my favourite places to walk our dog and enjoy the coastal paths which criss-cross the small fields and meadows behind the beaches.  Unusually, they are mostly down at sea-level and are usually edged by tamarisk trees.  Not much else thrives in the salt winds, and for some reason they have been inspiring me for years.  Above is a mixed media painting on a 40x50cm canvas and features these characteristic semi-transparent trees.

Below is a photo of a similar scene taken last year.
