Bourne Pillows
Description: St Mary Bourne is one of a string of pretty little villages that trace the Test Valley up to its sources. It is the typical English country village with stone church and a cluster of cottages, many of which are thatched. Here I've caught a thatcher at work on one of the cottages. Painted in oil on an 8x8 inch board, I particularly enjoyed painting the parked cars as a band of almost black paint, to which highlights of blue and white transform into what you see here.
Description: The Cape Cod Codfish - Although you may be miles away from the fried clam strips and horseshoe crabs of Cape Cod, nothing says summer like Cape Cod, a unique and colorful seaside community on the spit of land off the coast of Massachusetts. Cape Cod received its name for its abundance of codfish. Fishing and seafaring have long been an integral part of this community, as well as the relaxed and playful attitude that seems to permeate this Oceanside living.
