Loved all of these. I looked up a word to describe a collection spanning 40 years and came up with "oeuvre"... For some reason many of the works strike me as having the sensitivity of a feminine touch.

We drove down to Penzance from the Tamar Valley yesterday on a perfect June day (at last) to see this exhibition at the Penlee Gallery and it was superb. Well worth a visit.

Easy....the Tin Miners! But it is a brilliant set of images. Except the Mousehole one. I am tempted to hunt it down and burn it....

Though I love Harold Harvey’s work, I admit the Mousehole painting isn’t a favourite :)
