It’s been a fabulous 3 weeks of workshops & painting around the Shellharbour foreshore. This view was the subject of one of my demo paintings.
“Day at the Harbour”, 61X61cm, oil on board.

Found and left on the Thames foreshore, a late 19th to early 20th century fresnel lens from an old ship lantern. The design meant that the lens could be relatively thin and light, while still spreading its beam for some distance.

A wobbly bottom – the base of an 18th c wine bottle, found and left on the foreshore. Large enough to be from a mallet bottle, the transitionary shape between the squat onion bottles of the late 17th and early 18th c and the cylindrical bottles we recognise today.

Charles I stepped onto the wooden scaffold in front of Banqueting Hall on a bitterly cold day on 30 January 1649, exactly 373 years ago today.
Perhaps one of these Caroline coins, all found on the Thames foreshore, was in the pocket of a bystander.

At the foreshore a flint
Possibility, ex-Roman
Was laid at my feet
By the brown tidal wake
The beach of vast piles
At Bankside briefly emerge
Worker’s timelines in brick
And tile. Like a furtive ghost
I slip heavy holes into my work bag
That weigh my shoulder

More lovely clay squidges, filled with the fingerprints of long forgotten kiln workers. Waste from a stoneware kiln, dumped on the foreshore over 250 years ago, they are pieces of clay used to support and separate pottery in the kiln and salt glazed at the same time
Enamel badge from a recent foreshore foray. England’s three lions have a long history dating back to Henry I in the 12th c. Henry II added the third lion when he married Eleanor of Aquitaine in 1154 then Richard the Lionhart created the three lions in gold on a red background
Delightful illustration of @LondonMudlark by local artist and illustrator @rosiebrookspics. Thanks Rosie 😊
Visit the Cathedral this summer to see our #Larking exhibition which brings pages from Lara's forthcoming book to life with finds from the Thames foreshore. Link in bio.
18th c clay pipe bowl, found on the foreshore and featuring the coat of arms of the Waterman's Company. The Watermen's Company was founded in 1555, the Lightermen joined them in 1700 and perhaps 50 years later a proud member of the Company dropped his clay pipe in the river
Finally came up with a band name and logo!!
Say hi to "FOUR🌊SHORE!" my epic splatoon oc "kpop" boyband!!!!
It's kind of a play on "foreshore" which is the beach and "for sure" (so creative wow)
There's 6 of them but sixshore doesn't sound right DOES IT??
More art SOON™️
Political token mimicking a commercial token inviting the holder to redeem it at Newgate jail where the 4 named men were held for sedition for publishing a book on the rights or ordinary citizens. Found on my 1st visit back to the foreshore after Lockdown 1 last year #mudlarking
These are 18th century clay wig curlers, some broken, all found on the Thames foreshore. Did you know they set the curls in hair by wrapping it around these curlers then baking it in a pastry crust. Ingenious!

Found just before lockdown and banishment from the foreshore, this ithe 13 thimble I've found on the Thames and the oldest. It's a beautiful little medieval acorn or beehive thimble and it dates from around the 14th century.

Most of the white marks were made with bones (and other items) I found on the Thames foreshore. And Q-tips
