‘On Scarborough beach, I played football’, by Paul Allender

/ Anthology / By strongs

A painting which shows on the right, a white figure against a blue background, and on the left, a collage of scraps.

On Scarborough beach, I played football.  

 

This image is one of my new paintings. It is autobiographical and consists of two halves. One half reflects my early life growing up in Neepsend, an industrial area of Sheffield. The other half depicts me, as a child, on the beach with my football.
