This piece was created for a fundraiser for The Autism Support Network, and sold at auction. The image is a moment from my son’s childhood.

Appropriately enough, this piece was created when the lockdown was at its height. It layers the Front Beach both deserted during the lockdown, with what it was like last summer… If you look closely, you can see people on the beach, cars and the hut on the end of the wharf and the beach furniture that is left in front of peoples’ cabins. I think it gave me a sense of reminiscing about summers in better times! It also has layered views looking both east and west on the beach. It did strike a chord with one lovely lady; she bought it as I was signing my name on the piece! Reproductions are still available, though!

All true Savary-ites have a rite of passage; the sunset dock-jump, that appropriately happens every summer evening, in full view of the sign that says “No Diving off the Wharf”! Welcome to Savary… This piece is 24x30, and the original has been sold. Contact me if you are interested in an archival print, though!
