The slipway at Porthleven harbour is a favourite viewpoint. In this version, I like the way the shadow on the slipway, thrown by the railings, draws the viewer down into the harbour and out past the lazy upturned dinghys basking on the wharf and the moored boats ready with their masts and rigging. The deeply coloured baffling of the harbour walls contains and becalms an azure pool.

The painting is with the Customs House Gallery.
