Peter Graham painting on Iona coast

'Peter Graham is a painter who draws his inspiration from his travels around Europe and America- sadly curtailed at the moment. But he and now we can dream of what we are missing. Still life however becomes even more apt.. together these three painters represent Glasgow School of Art in its glorious years of the 1950s to 1970s.'

Painting in Le Touquet with Peter Graham

Virtual Trip to Le Touquet

Around this time of year I normally drop in to Le Touquet on the Opal Coast of Northern France. It has a wonderful art deco atmosphere as a beach town with delightful restaurants like Perard, and an expanse of golden sands and dunes. Here is a glimpse of the coast alongside a couple of paintings created on the magnificent beach - I hope you get the feel of the place and needless to say, I cannot wait to get back …hope to see you there!
