New Horizons at the Blue Moon Café

New_horizons

A show of  7 seascapes made during 2010 - 2011

exhibited at the Blue Moon Café during April - May 2012

Acrylic on stretched canvas 40" x 40"

All works are for sale.

In these paintings the shore sea, horizon and sky become areas of expressive and evocative colour and texture. The work alludes to the infinite and the immediate in our world and in our minds. Both are a source of wonder.
 “The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven.. “                                                                                            John Milton
