Cornwall montage.



This is something I've had going on for months, I do a bit, then leave it, then return again. It's another picture for my wife who is my most important (and only) patron and, if my output allowed, would have our home filled with this sort of thing. I must admit doing projects like the one here is a lot of fun, mixing cartoon style stuff with more representational images and adding a bit of humour. It was also nice to add a personal touch with our two kids running into the sea. The mount, if you haven't already guessed, is a photo mount which can be picked up very cheaply together with the frame, in a lot of hardware stores. My wife and (only) patron is very pleased with her latest order ! Watercolour with pen and ink on any old paper to hand.

  1. I love it!!! You've got such great representations of your vacation. The one of your kids going into the surf is great!!! The gulls and the crabs are such fun! I also like the fact that you did them in a variety of sizes. Great job!!

  5. Hi Kev, recently I thought of you and it's such a nice surprise to find your lovingly Cornwall montage here. You kept so many beautiful moments in there! It's such a great idea and I want to do something like this for my husband too.
