Below was the state of the highest point of the beach, I grabbed a bag full of plastic from across the whole bay - 7 particular items can be seen in the Beach Plastic Inventory scroll to the bottom of the images for the new finds.

Late last year MCS was chosen as one of 2 charities to be Deutsche Bank's charity of the Year 2010. In March of this year an art auction to raise funds for The Marine Conservation Society will take place at the London head quarters of Deutsche Bank.

Invited Artist from across the UK have submitted work for this cause and I was lucky enough to be asked. I have gladly donated a Blue Marine/Beach Plastic combination piece, (See here), and fully support the good work MCS do, best of luck.

Wills Art will be taking my work to The Glasgow Art Fair, so if your near, pop along a get yourself an original McPherson Marine Plastic artwork.

Yes eventually I managed to get the new website to a point where I am happy to say its done. I will no doubt find little tweaks to do or wish to add extra text and as new works are completed I will update it. But as it stands its there, so check it out and see what you think.www.stevemcpherson.co.uk
