I have a series of  ‘firework’ paintings. I was fortunate to be at the right place at the right time to watch and photograph a spectacular firework display over the inner harbour at Brixham, Devon when the tide was in. My fascination with the shapes of the explosions, their reflection in the still waters and the saturation of the surrounding harbour structures and floating boats by the coloured compounds released into the night sky led to this series of paintings.
