Thank you Heather ,Linda, Brian, Fiona and last but not least Denise for you kind comments . I think that if I had taken up painting as a youth I would like to have become a maritime artist , assuming I was good enough .

Thank you John , Richard and Hillary for your comments they are appreciated. I do believe Richard that when you like a particular subject , you paint better without realising it.

Did not know what to call it so thought of the ship full of skins and the sailors having a skin full in the bar the night before .
