My coastal landscape painting, 'Above The Petrel Station', will feature at a new art exhibition launching the annual Pembrokeshire Art Trail in May.The group exhibition will show works by artists and makers on this year's Art Trail. It opens on Saturday, 23rd May, at the West Wales Arts Centre at Peppers in Fishguard.
‘Above The Petrel Station’ was inspired by a week-long painting trip to the tiny Pembrokeshire island of Skokholm, home to thousands of other seabirds. 'The Petrel Station' is the nickname for a concealed cliffside breeding site and monitoring station, managed by island wardens to record the behaviour and health of the population.
I loved seeing the birds, but most striking of all was the richness of colours and textures on the island. The unreal dusky pink ancient red sandstone, the bright orange of the lichen that clings to it, and the deep teal of the sea. It was all spectacular.
