One of three paintings I began on holiday recently, on the east coast near Whitby; this was the spectacular result of an incoming wave colliding with a wave reflected off a sea wall, just as the sun broke through. What do you think of it so far? Love and God bless 🙂❤️🌊🙏

It takes a man of incomparable arrogance and stupidity to risk violent conflict and needless bloodshed over the planned Jerusalem move, disregarding decades of peace processes, for an easy win with Zionists to distract from conflicts within his own government and lawsuits
