National marine week (which is apparently a fortnight!) runs until this Sunday so the wonderful world of sealife seems an appropriate subject for this month's challenge.  If you've got the kids or grandchildren with you for the holidays why not get them involved too and share their underwater paintings and drawings as part of this thread?

This is a painting I did of sailors below deck on a Merchant Navy ship my father served on, he took the picture. Using sepia w/c paint on bockingford.

And another he served on. More 'on the sea' than what lives and grows within it.

Not a new one, but it fits the challenge.

Lovely vibrant paintings, Jenny, Gillian and Sylvia. It was always a nice thing to do with my parents to look at the old photos and listen to their stories, Sylvia. Thinking back I do believe the tales were a little taller than they should have been, but good fun.

This is wild. I started working on this piece a few days ago. I do very few seascape type images. Timing. Appx. 17x22. Corel Painter, Wacom tablet. I used a few diff. refs.to create this calm little inlet.
