The White Horse, Cuckmere Valley, by Andrew G Forrest, Eastbourne Artist

The White Horse, Cuckmere Valley

This horse was cut into the chalk of Hindover Hill in 1924 and is now owned by the National Trust. My painting is based on several photos I took in 2007. I painted the horse bigger than it appears to the naked eye, and it seems to have jumped over a hill within the hill.

I have painted this scene in both watercolour and acrylic. The Fishing Station, off Royal Parade, offers a visual insight into the Eastbourne seashore and the fisherman’s life, with the Victorian Pier in the distance.

Sunset, Birling Gap

To the right are the cliffs known as the Seven Sisters. In my painting I have explored the abstract qualities inherent in the beach - its colours, patterns and textures.

Lewes: The Round House, By Andrew Forrest, Sussex Artist

Lewes: The Round House

Drawn for the Eastbourne Festival 2010. ‘The Round House’, formerly a windmill, was once owned by Virginia and Leonard Woolf. The pencils used for this drawing are notably ‘blacker’ than those employed for ‘On Keere Street’ which I drew mainly with H, 2H and F. In the background of the latter drawing are the old city walls. Foreground right: can you see the hidden face?
