SALCOMBE LIFEBOAT PRINT "BALTIC EXCHANGE II" A SPECIAL EDITION SIGNED PRINT TO COMMEMORATE A FAMOUS YEAR IN THE HISTORY OF SALCOMBE LIFEBOAT.

BY GORDON ASHTON IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE SALCOMBE LIFEBOAT CREW The Inspiration As winter approaches, the residents of a picturesque Devon Resort reflect on the exploits of their lifeboat cox'n Frank Smith and his crew of TV stars. Gathering on street corners or in sleepy bars they exchange views on events inspired by the documentary series.

A stone's throw away from the lifeboat store, artist Gordon Ashton pauses at his work as he hears the twin explosions of the maroons calling the crew to action, and moments later the roar of the 850 h.p. engines heading out in SIM. At night on a floodlit quay or early in the morning anchored amidst the panorama of Salcombe estuary, he is always aware of the lifeboat and the many daring rescues attributed to its fearless crew.

This painting is a result of all those images. And it is a lasting tribute to the year of the Salcombc Lifeboat.

Gordon Ashton A former freelance illustrator, who pursued his career in Europe and Australia before settling in Salcombe some 12 years ago. Now established as an integral part of the community with a Fine Art gallery distributing to collectors around the world.
