A fortnight at Brisons Veor, Cape Cornwall
I was lucky enough to have a two week residency to create art in a house net to the sea at Cape Cornwall.
What a fabulous fortnight experiencing changing weather and light on the landscape while listening to the roar of the sea.
During the first week I sketched mainly using charcoal dust and cold wax on oil paper, sometimes adding oil paint. Then in the second week I developed oil paintings on panels. It was possible to focus fully and to soak up the sights and sounds of the coast.
I shared the residency with Julie Marcus - we worked separately in different studios and outside but came together to exchange thoughts on our artwork, to visit a couple of exhibitions, laugh and swim.
The name, Brisons Veor, comes from the rocks directly off the coast near the house.
