Notes from the artist:

'I have been painting the Dorset Coast for 30 years. These paintings are based on specific places, they are also about journeys and natural phenomena, and looking at the work invites imaginative travel into the distant past. The shore between Black Rock and Arish Mell should only be visited on a falling tide, for the sea runs up very quickly below Cockpits Head. Chalk of the zone of Actinocamax quadratus stretches from nearly opposite Barber's Rock to a low bluff on the west side of Arish Mell.'
