Artist Clive McBain
Clive McBain's paintings are unique celebration of Sussex in all its beauty, whether hidden or public.
Clive's unerring eye sees splendour where others simply fail to look and he renders it with a detail that defies belief.
Whether he is depicting a simple signpost or a church window, a decaying boat or one of the county's landmark windmills, Clive makes his subject live.
His art is minute observation allied with an instinctive understanding of colour and texture - qualities which have made him one of Sussex's most admired and most distinctive painters.
