Desire

I call this one Desire because it is based on a scene from the movie (and play of course) A Streetcar Named Desire.  It is one of my favourite movie moments of all time.

12 x 14 inches, oil on canvas.

Nanjizel

Oil on linen on board, 5 x 7 inches.

Nanjizel is a beach on the Cornish coast.  It is off the beaten track and a bit of a walk to get there, but it is worth it!

Mousehole Harbour

24 x 30 cm.  Oil on linen on board.  We visit Mousehole in Cornwall every year.  Maybe one day when I am rich and famous like the artist Ken Howard I will be able to by a place there.

Scone

Oil on linen on board 7 x 5 inches.  The big debate in our house is whether the jam goes on before the cream or the cream before the jam.  I say jam first and then cream, which is the Cornish way I believe.  Mrs C likes it as it is here, which is how they do it in Devon.  What do you think?
