Back to selling wet paintings

One of the things I used to miss about when we had the Grosmont Gallery was selling wet paintings. It gives me a real boost and makes me annoyingly happy. This one is of the beech trees above Falling Foss. As you can see we're into the Autumn colours here and I'm hectically scurrying around grabbing scenes before we loose all the leaves.

Oh yes and it's sold

Getting back in the groove

I almost walked away from this one, all was grey and dismal until the sun rose through the clouds on the horizon. It's Saltwick bay by the way.


This one is from the top of Kettleness looking out over Runswick Bay.

I must apologise for not keeping up with my blog recently but this is the reason. The flag ship for my bid for world domination, "Trattles and Geall Fine Arts" 127 Church Street,Whitby. I'm planning on getting its Website up and running by the end of the weekend.

As you can see I'm still getting the odd painting out dispite all the upheaval. This is a view I've been meaning to get to for a long time, usually I'm in too much of a hurry to get down to the beach. It's Saltwick bay, about a mile south of Whitby Abbey.

Early dawn

I have to admit getting up for a dawn is a bit of a chore especially when it amounts to nothing. But sometimes its worth it, this one is from the beach at Robin Hood's bay. It infact clouded over pretty quicky and I went back home to bed.

Poverty Hill

The colours that come out on the moors when the heather is in bloom are simply stunning. Again this photo isn't doing the picture justice, i've redone the last two pictures which hopefully give you a better idea of the colours I keep wittering on about.

The Heather is out

The colours on this one haven't come out well, I'll take it out side and redo it when the rain stops. It's going to be moors moors moors for the next couple of weeks because the heather is out. This is up above Goathland, I'll have to look up the areas name on the map.

New gallery

If you have been regularly checking me out you will have noticed that I've been trying to get a new style going. The reason for this is that I'm setting up a gallery in whitby and want a way of painting buildings. Yes that's right I'm getting back into the gallery game, we're looking to move into what is now "Pybus fine arts" at the top end of church street. I don't have an opening date yet but will keep you posted.
