THE LONG, WILD SHORE
James McCallum’s paintings and drawings are created from life while he watches the subject, and his intimate knowledge of wildlife brings them to life. His latest book focuses on the North Norfolk coast that is his home, and evokes the atmosphere of the bleak and beautiful Blakeney Point. The text gives some history of the area, describes the behaviour of the wildlife, and tells anecdotes about the sketches and paintings. There is a lot to interest those who are familiar with the Point, and to entice those who are not, but it is the artwork that captures the imagination and lives in the memory.
