Title: 1982 Watercolour of Newton Ferrers Devon with Boats, Hills and Coastal Cottages
By Tony Herbert (1927-2024)
Medium: Watercolor on artists paper
Size: 10.75 x 14.75 inches
Annotated verso: “Newton Ferrers 82”

Provenance: From a large private collection of this artists work, Oxford, England
Description: A vibrant and beautifully composed 1982 watercolour by Tony Herbert, capturing the layered hills, whitewashed cottages and boats of Newton Ferrers, a picturesque village on the south coast of Devon, near Noss Mayo and the River Yealm. Known for its wooded valley setting and tidal estuary, Newton Ferrers is a classic subject for coastal painters — and this work demonstrates Herbert’s masterful sensitivity to light, rhythm and form.
In the foreground, boats rest at low tide, their reflections mingling with the muddy pink and grey shore. Further back, tightly packed cottages climb the hillside in soft shades of cream, blue and grey, their forms partially obscured by layers of rich green foliage. The background is dominated by a gently sloping wooded hill, rendered in muted tones that draw the eye toward the centre of the village.
Herbert paints with a loose but deliberate brush, balancing architectural clarity with expressive marks. The colour palette is subtle yet distinctive, and the perspective creates a sense of quiet depth — an artist truly familiar with the unique terrain of the Devon coastline.
Tony Herbert (1927–2024) exhibited widely across southern England and is celebrated for his ability to capture the mood and architecture of small British towns and harbours. This work is ideal for collectors of South Hams art, coastal village watercolours, or nostalgic depictions of 1980s Devon.
