About this artwork

I painted & sold the painting illustrated here a few years ago, but I'll paint it again by request! If you would like to contact me about this or any other painting in my Artists & Illustrators Gallery, please call 07704678042, or email brook829@btinternet.com

I've recently been reading the collection of poems made by William Sieghart, "Winning Words", and came across a lovely one by John Betjeman called "Seaside Golf". Just for fun, I want to put up the final verse here with a painting of mine which might just do it justice! The cliffs are those at Yesnaby, Orkney.
"Ah! Seaweed smells from sandy caves
And thyme and mist in whiffs,
In-coming tide, Atlantic waves
Slapping the sunny cliffs,
Lark song and sea sounds in the air
And splendour, splendour everywhere".
