'Low Tide, Burnham Overy Staithe, Norfolk' by Peter Symonds portrays the quiet beauty of the North Norfolk coast. With boats resting on the mudflats and warm sunlight illuminating the shoreline and cottages beyond, the painting reflects the tranquillity of this historic harbour. Symonds conveys the rhythm of the tide and the timeless character of the coastal landscape, evoking the unique charm of Burnham Overy Staithe and its connection to sea and shore.
From the granite cliffs of Cornwall to the wooded banks of the River Wey, Peter Symonds invites the viewer into a world of quiet majesty and luminous detail. His paintings, reveal a profound sensitivity to light, weather and terrain. An avid walker and mountaineer, Peter has climbed the very peaks and trodden the footpaths that later appear in his work. His intimate knowledge of each location, earned on foot and in all weathers, lends his compositions a rare authenticity and emotional depth. Every canvas begins with a walk, each view is shaped by experience.
Working exclusively in oils, Peter distils atmosphere through a balance of expressive brushwork and crisp detail. His paintings reveal a lived experience: the crispness of Highland air or the hush of dusk on Cornish sands. Peter’s paintings are reflections of a life spent outdoors and are a tribute to the places that have stirred him most.
