Paintings of Godrevy

I thought I'd show you some of my paintings of Godrevy from my Cornish exhibition.

Godrevy is a popular surfer's beach near St Ives.  It has sandy beaches and high cliffs - although the first time I went there, I couldn't see a hand in front of my face because the sea mist was so thick!


However the next day was beautiful sunshine and blue skies - such are the vagaries of the Cornish weather!

 
Ideal painting conditions!

The lighthouse is said to have insipired Virginia Woolf's To the Lighthouse.
