~ Couples ~ Strandline paintings ~ Cornwall.

Well they are finally finished and not all set on the strandline as you'll see. 
All set in and around Cornwall.
'The artist and the lobster catcher..'
This group of work, which I'm sure will grow was inspired by a film and a book by the artist, author and film maker Jane Darke. The painting above is a tribute to Jane and her late husband Nick Darke, actor, film maker and lobster catcher.
 
 'The potter and the artist..'
 'Lovers on a Sunday walk..'
'Waiting patiently..'
  The four paintings that are finished.. Wall easels not set up very well, apologizes for that..

    What a lovely tribute to the artist and her late husband, immortalised by your own fair hand, Julie. I love all of your new paintings but I think my favourite is Lovers on a Sunday Walk = reminds me of my best friend and her husband in NZ and their wee dog, Molly. Hope Bubba is faring well? xxx

    I love them all! But Lovers on a Sunday Walk is my favorite I think - hard to pick. Will any of them be for sale? You have such a talent!

    These are lovely paintings, Julie. I watched the movie, yes I could find it here in Canada!, and I too was moved by it. You have captured the feeling of it in "The artist and the Lobsterman". I just love them all.

    Hope all is well with your family. Spring is here, some days are even too hot!

    My Lisa had a recent "CANCERFREE" result from the blood tests and P.E.T. scan last week!! We are thrilled of course and somewhat shocked after 14 years of living with cancer.
