|January 2020
Artist and farmer’s wife, Julie Gregory, is inspired by Northumberland’s dramatic North Sea coastline, with its wonderful light and ever-changing mood
My painting studio faces the sea and I look out over a hawthorn hedge onto the fields of corn and oilseed rape that lead down to the dunes, with the North Sea and the Farne Islands beyond. This has been my view for 35 years – I can see the weather coming over and the white horses on the waves. The still, calm days are lovely, but I prefer it when the storms rage and the sea changes from grey to green to beautiful aqua colour.
