#204 'View over Southsea Common' 21x30cm


This is a view from my Mums flat in Southsea - Portsmouth. I painted on the balcony, 7 floors up. The common grass area is already dry and burnt from the sun we've been having.  
The building is Southsea Castle (built in 1544) and the light house was built in the 1820's!  The building in the sea is called Spitbank Fort and the land on the horizon is the Isle of Wight.

Here is a pic of the painting on the balcony:

  1. What a fortunate Mother you have Clare to live in a place with such an amazing view.
    You have captured the scene beautifully.
