My name is Derek Frost. I'm a computer programmer living and working in the North East of England. But you probably don't want to know about me. This site is very much in it's embryonic stages. It contains a gallery of my friend Robert Oliver's original water colour paintings. I hope to add sound clips and maybe stories in the future. For now this is my site.

Whoops! I forgot I had this site. It hasn't been updated for over 10 years. If you want to see my slide show about using Spring Framework from SuperMondays, you can download a PDF copy here.
If not, please feel free to look at some of my friends water colour paintings of the region.

For original water colours featuring coastal and industrial landscapes of North East England enter Bob's Gallery.

Some paintings from Robert's latest exhibition, Usual Place, can be found here.

For more paintings visit Bob's Archive.
