Like this Bobbie, well done.

Great use of left-overs!

Nice piece Bobbie, a good composition.

Thank you. I really wasn't sure about this one, so I'm glad you like it.

Superb boats Bobby , drawn really well and they are not the easiest thing to sketch out .

A very good painting despite the difficult conditions!

Thank you Paul and Lynda. I'm glad I posted it! At some point, I'll have another go with soft pastels and see how different it looks.

Well done Bobbie, I like this. You learn a lot from having to fight the paint.

Love the variety of boats, ready to sail off in the sunshine Bobbie.

Thank you George and Carole. Perhaps I should be happier with this piece than I was when I put my brushes down!

Although I'm not happy with the final result - art is subjective so I thought I'd post it anyway!
