Cruise Liner in Sydney

Comments

Gosh - my late mother-in-law went for a cruise on the Oriana - takes me back I can tell you. Lovely scene and I like the pale large liner against the darker busy little tug. The bridge nicely links the two.

Very unusual composition which works very well. I like how the bridge draws you towards the Oriano.

Thank you Thea and Joseph.

I agree with Joseph - the composition is unusual, yet it creates such interesting shapes that add vitality to the atmosphere.

Thank you Seok, it's similar to my other tug boat work but absolutely not intended, more an accident, a happy one.

An iconic scene I made up for a friend who loves tug boats

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.
