Chimney pots in Whitby, UK


During my trip to England, one of the things that I found fascinating were all the different sizes and shapes of chimney pots.........on the same chimney!! In C ananda we have chimneys of course, but usually one or two plain pots, where the smoke comes out. In England their chimney pots are amazing.All shapes,  very different colours and all kinds of things attached to the chimney. There are antennae and wires and satellite dishes. Hopefully my painting does justice to the chimney pots, but also a wonderful little village, Whitby, on the North Sea. Such interesting, winding streets going up and down the cliff face on the River Eyre

                           
                               
This oil painting is 12x24".
