Acrylic Painting by David Hosking showing a lively Padstow Harbour. Abstract blocks of colour and strong lines create this scene of strong movement and passion. David hopes this painting will draw you into his world. 100x120cms.

This is a painting that portrays everything that makes Cornwall such a wonderful place to visit. Through the entrance to the Tate find St Michael's Mount sitting proudly in Mount's Bay. Notice the tin mine, the fishing boat, the lobster pots and the proud Cornish Chough all inviting the visitor into this magical world.

David's painting of St Ives is portraying the iconic harbour so well known by people around the world. David uses such vibrant colours to portray a scene where the sun is shining down upon the harbour, injecting the scene with such warmth and passion. The boats are idly resting waiting for the oncoming sea.
