Coastal/Seascape and associated Interiors
The following group is probably from around Morecambe, carried out when Olive was on holiday. For outdoor paintings on location, Greg, her husband made a bespoke tent attached to the back of his vehicle which gave protection from the elements. Olive told me that she took her cats with her to Anglesey. Some works are painted from interiors. One is identified as Morecombe.

120. Seascape, probably the North Wales Coast from Anglesey

Both the above are very probably the North Wales Coast from Anglesey. The latter (122) is an oil sketch.
123. The Little Terrace

As mentioned at the start of this brief summary, Olive was inspired by the Impressionists, as Harry Rutherford had been, but particularly by Claude Monet's attempts to capture the endless changes in light in the natural environment and on water. Her seascapes were undoubtedly a challenge she anticipated with much enthusiasm. She painted seascapes in England, Wales and Scotland. See 120, 121, 122 above.
