This is a painting i made in response to the increase in junk which is washed up on our beautiful beaches which has been thrown overboard from fishing boats. I was brought up in a fishing village on the North east coast of Scotland and now reside in Edinburgh. I spend a lot of time on my visits back north in trying to pick up some of the plastic, twine, netting, rubber gloves and boots, boiler suits and plastic containers and flagons. When I was little and growing up in the 60's the beaches were our playggrounds and they were clean and beautiful. No children play there now, and they are full of rubbish and litter.
£560 (As exhibited.)
