These small acrylic paintings are a new venture for 2014. 

Having watched Jane Davies demonstrate her acrylic collages I was inspired to try my own ideas. Each painting begins with a layer of paint, over which are collaged hand decorated or printed papers.  Then the painting starts. I love the creamy texture of the acrylic paint - and of course brushes and other tools wash up with water. 

These small paintings are inspired by the sea and by the people who are, and who have been connected with the sea.  The sea is an important part of our island heritage.
