From Sea to Shore

FROM SEA TO SHORE A SOLO Exhibition - Thur 17 June - Sun 31 July

BY MARGARET SHIELDS

A solo Exhibition
(Storms, breezes and hazes)

I live in a small town, which is on a cliff, by the sea, so sea-related subjects are the theme of this exhibition.

The first thing we see when we turn right out of our front gate is the sea, so we walk down the street towards it where we have to decide whether to turn right or left, depending upon the direction or force of the wind. On gentler mornings we approach the sea direct and search the horizon. How many ships are waiting to go into Teesport? Is the tide out?

Sometimes in early summer, the sea is a gentle blue haze and it will be then and in better times when many people will enjoy being on the beach. It will not be for a while, but I hope we shall see it again one day.
