East Quay – Original Hand Drawn Illustration

Alison Collins' original fine art hand drawn illustration of the East Quay in Wells-next-the-Sea, Norfolk, captures more than just the physical landscape; it's a reflection of the artist's dedication to detail and the deliberate strokes that bring a scene to life.

Each line is a thoughtful choice, contributing to a larger vision. It's a celebration of the slow, thoughtful process of traditional artistry in a world that often prioritizes speed and efficiency. This piece stands as a reminder of the value of patience and the profound beauty that can emerge from it.

It takes time to produce an original piece of art, but it’s certainly time well spent; with simplicity of line Alison cleverly conjures up coastal memories.

Alison spent much of her childhood travelling the world; her father was in the film industry, whilst her mother was an interior designer who filled the family home with original paintings. On their travels she had the opportunity to visit many museums and galleries in wondrous locations which ultimately ignited her love of art.

After studying Graphic Design at university, she went on to become Head of Design for a large insurance company for a number of years.

Her passion for drawing has grown ever stronger and making memories has now become her priority.  There’s nothing quite like taking a blank piece of paper and turning it into an emotive, nostalgic artwork in a unique special way.

Her inspiration mainly comes from the seaside, particularly the Cornish and Dorset Coastlines.

This original artwork is hand drawn on to beautiful, white high quality 300g English watercolour paper, which has been made on a traditional cylinder mould machine at St Cuthberts Mill, using 100% wood free pulp. The sheet is acid free and slightly textured.

The illustration is signed by the artist and is available unframed or fully mounted & framed ready for hanging in either a black, white or oak frame and comes wrapped in acid free tissue paper and biodegradable bubble wrap and corrugated paper roll.

Designed in Hertfordshire, UK.
