Storm, Moors (26th Dec 1922)
At this period of his life he would be painting on the spot and certainly this watercolour is full of the drama of the moment. I love the lively treatment of the bit of blue sky at the top. [PB]
Hailstorm on the Solent (1979)
He would have watched this from his car parked on Lepe beach. He and Mavis would take a thermos and honey sandwiches to watch people and the weather on the water.
Fall of Snow (1985)
This looks a bit like West Road in Dibden Purlieu where Richard lived, but it isn’t quite exact. He often changed things around to fit in with his idea. This little picture has captured the feel of freshly fallen snow before it gets slushy.
