'Winderful Whitstable' art


Following hot on the heels of 'Whitstabubble' came another retro-style seaside postcard, 'Winderful Whitstable'. The idea came from the Thames estuary windfarms built a mile or two out to sea a few years back (just visible oon the horizon)and the pose is firmly and unashamedly non-PC style! There's little point in trying to resurrect the lost art form of British 'Saucy seaside post cards' made famous by the likes of Donald McGill if you are going to be answerable to the PC brigade.
