Thanks David, I have adjusted the photo as the ship is lower at stern then bow. Might repost without the sketch.

Skilful was the word that came to me too Derek. It's excellent.

Excellent work up. The figures are fantastic the most important bit. Not bothered about ship, but it would be a quick fix if you want to do it.

I like how you maintained the spontaneity of your sketch in the painting, Derek. Nicely done.

Very good textures and colour Derek from your sketch, striking.

Really like the painting but what a great sketch. I'm doing a demo on quick sketching next week and this is such a great example - it captures the scene in a few simple marks.

My sketch from March 2015 and today's workup on top of earlier work The Day we had no Power. All with cards.

About the Artist

Derek Snowdon

Eleventyeight as my hashing pals called my new age recently, it's supposed to sound better. Trying to paint every day in acrylics using only expired credit/debit cards, and partially succeeding as they're only for me and not show these days.
