Notes from the artist:

'The vertical banded face of East Cliff overlooks West Bay, the sheer 100 feet cliffs rise up from a beach of shingle. The East Cliff, although barely a quarter of the height of Golden Cap, is impressive for its sheer face and steep end towards the harbour. This painting is derived from a subjective experience of a place by the coast where land, sea and sky meet. It conveys my intimate knowledge of East Cliff beyond its literal appearance; the picture is much more like a portrait than a landscape in any topographical tradition.'
