I am sat here at the dining room table whilst my wife and my son are playing scramble. Just recovering from a day out shopping with my wife, she was looking for shoes... great fun eh? we went in all of the shoe shops in Yeovil (over a period of three hours) looking for the right colour, the right feel, and the right style. She ended up buying a mobile phone.

I came back home and finished my latest picture... my way to de-stress. I am putting these in to print as a limited edition of 100.

Here it is.

Well here it is as promised, I love doing these pictures as it reminds me so much of the seaside. When I was a child our most exciting time was going to Blackpool and as a kid the sea seemed so much bluer and the sun so much warmer, you could spend all day on the beach just digging.

These paintings tend to bring out that holiday feeling... or so I hope.

I am getting ready to start another, going to put a few preliminary sketches together this evening ready for next week. I am banned from painting this weekend as my wife wants my undivided.

Hope you like the picture!

Mike
