Cornish Scene by Terry Stockbridge (oil on canvas)

An impulse purchase bought today at auction. Paul and I love Cornwall so this reminds us of holidays but apart from that it's a nice quirky little oil painting, really vibrant colours - not sure of the date but I'm going to contact the artist (he's based locally) and ask him.

That's fabulous. Does it bring back wonderful memories. I have a
"Scotland" wall that include a variety of pictures picked up in
Scotland and a few of Scotland picked up here. Brings back fabulous
memories every time I see them.

Thank you Carolyn - yes it brings back memories of a holiday we had once (pre-Lottie days) in Port Isaac - just a simple holiday where we did lots of walking along the cliffs and National Trust trails and ate crab salads for lunch and scones and clotted cream with pots of tea in the afternoon.

Really love the painting pip, kath's brother lives in perranporth in cornwall , when we visit it really is a breath of fresh air , your painting really captures the place , nice one ,Ed

Another point pip, is the regitration on the boat FY , that's a Fowey registration , not saying painting is of fowey , but it might be , Ed

You're probably right Ed. I'm glad you like the painting :-)

Sounds absolutely delightful. I have read so many books that have taken
place in Cornwall. I would really love to visit some time.
