Brixham Trawlers in Dry Dock - revamped

Comments

Love the colours of the trawlers Alan, the sky adds a lot to the overall look.

I really like the hint of mackerel sky and the lovely rich colours of the ships.

Another excellent version Alan, not sure which one I prefer. Probably this one, but close. Both are really good.

Love the Blues and Oranges Alan - and great drawing as always.

Looks fab darling! It all gels together nicely and you can see the structure.

I thought it was good before but the revised sky does indeed pull it all together.

A very fine boatyard painting Alan, nothing to be unhappy about. The sky sets it off.

I agree Alan - you have improved an already excellent painting.

A total revamp. I’ve added a sky which pulls it all together better - and repainted most of the two trawlers! I’m happier with it than I was… but not my best work by a long way!
