Bridlington art – paintings and prints

My current, and growing, collection of Bridlington art, that includes Flamborough Head, Burton Agnes Hall & Gardens and Bempton Cliffs.

Please note my linocuts are always available from Gallery 49 in the Old Town, Bridlington, too (see below)

Inspiration for Bridlington Art

A visit to Bridlington, on the East Coast, UK, always sets me buzzing with art to make.

Burton Agnes Hall & Gardens, Flamborough Head, Danes Dyke and Bempton Cliffs are all near-by, plus two beaches of very different character. South Beach is a long sweeping sandy idyll, while North Beach is a combination of sand and pebbles next to the cliffs which become Flamborough Head. More than enough to inspire endless paintings and prints so these are just the start.

I spend quite a lot of time at Bridlington in East Yorkshire, enjoying a light lunch at The Spa (South Bay), or new leisure centre (North Bay), after a morning/afternoon sketching, or planning oil paintings and linocuts near-by in, or overlooking, the coves on Flamborough Head. That or wandering down the sun-dappled Danes Dyke path to the sea, beach and rock pools, where looking back toward the seaside town reveals a glittering vista on a Summers day – altogether it's one of my (many) favourite places in Yorkshire.

The light over Bridlington is usually rewarding for an artist/painter and I long to do a series of beach paintings capturing it. Only so many hours unfortunately!
