Watercolour for sale.....

…this Thursday 26 September at Anderson & Garland’s “Modern Art & Design” auction in Newcastle and online. It is untitled, undated and signed on the back of the frame and is of St Cuthbert’s Isle, Holy Island. We know of an oil painting John did of the same view. For many years while a lecturer at Sunderland University, John would take his students on residential trips to Holy Island so it is an oft-visited subject. When the tide comes in, St Cuthbert’s Isle becomes separated from Holy Island and so becomes a tidal island off a tidal island. It is accessible only by foot at low tide.
