View to the Sea #2 Painting

I have loved to paint since childhood and was lucky enough to spend some four years in Switzerland at school where, noticing that I had an interest in painting, they sent me for Art Classes (one day a week) with a local Dutch/Canadian painter called Will Burdet. He used to take me out landscape painting on Wednesday afternoons amidst some of the most picturesque scenery in the world and I stood and painted next to him whilst he created beautiful landscapes. I left Switzerland with a letter of introduction to the painter Ivon Hitchens. The note stayed in my wallet for weeks, then months, then disappeared.
