Walk on Baggy

Walk on Baggy. Oil on board. 7"x6"

Baggy Point is a sprig of land that sticks out into the sea like a finger and the pathways skirt all the way round it from one huge beach to another. If you climb across the finger you can stand on the top of the ridge and see 180 degrees of sea - it is sublime.
In this painting we are looking down the path towards its end near a village called Croyde - famous as a surfers paradise. The reward for walking the full length is in the house on the right - it's a tea room and they do the best cream tea's.
I walked round there last year with my Mother (She visits every summer) so I put us in the painting.
