I'd thought of adding points of interest, or some sort of narrative element, to a few rather empty landscapes - but something other than a distant sail or seagull shapes. Gabriel had done some lovely pencil drawings of fish and birds of prey at home and made them into posters for fun, or for school projects. I got him to come to the studio and draw me some brents to cut out and stick on the painting of the beach at Walberswick in January, and some birds of his choice - bittern, kestrel and terns - for the one of the sea wall near Old Hall Farm. I painted them on in actual size in oils, the idea being that they still look like his pencil paper cut-out originals.
