You are going to have to stop doing these wonderfuyl paintings, Avril - there is a limit to how much jealousy I can experience!! Seriously, another of your fantastic interpretations of a cast aside boat - lovely textures and colours.

Those colours are superb and I love your fine detail. I think you must give the poor old girl a name Avril, so sad.

I agree with them, Avril: this is stunning! You have such a fine eye to find those exceptional subjects and to paint them perfectly!!!

I agree with Carole that poor girl deserves a name, but at least she's recorded for posterity in a beautiful painting.

I agree with all the above even if I don't comprehend Francaise I'm sure it's just as complimentary well done Avril. : )

Merci mille fois! The "old lady" thanks you all for noticing her .... The first word is missingfrom her name but she was "............... de la Mer". Any ideas?
