..but a lot prettier. It's hard to believe that the lovely sea thrift here was completely under salt water for a week during the storms in January. One of the ways of simply living for me is to be in touch daily with the natural world and I always look out for the flowering of thrift, armeria maritima, on these particular rocks. I've done a number of paintings of it. Maybe it's time to do another, to keep, since the others all sold long ago..

It's a beautiful plant, but looks even more so in a natural environment.

Funny you should say that - I'm making my garden more naturalistic too - influenced by scenes like this.

Oh I do find it hard to part with my paintings sometimes! (Will write a post about that soon..)

Our landscapes have a lot of similarities (though you probably have more chalk than granite?)

So many different photographs from a - relatively - small piece of your beautiful landscape. In every photograph something else comes to play along with the sea thrift: man made like, what is it, a tower, or nature's hand like in rocks, waves, lines and curves, lichen. I so much enjoyed every one of them.

You're very observant! I'm so glad you like them Cath. I love this little patch of shoreline which is just down a little grass path from the house. Leave a Reply. |
