I love the look of these old wooden boats Dixie. Another lovely painting. You have the shape spot on.

Thank you Anne and Tessa for you kind comments. As you probably know I love painting boats and the challenge of the shape is one of the things that attracts me to drawing and painting them .

Thank you Brian , they do have a beautiful look to them I think it’s the lines and shape the hulls take.

A4 watercolour of a clinker built fishing boats of the style that was used on the Kent coast , Hastings, Deal etc. The original boats were sail powered and later engines were added or were built as a combination, used the sails for drifting as it gave steerage way . Some are used until a few years ago . This is a fictional scene but based on actual scenes I named the boat so as not to use any identification or registration marks . Touch boats used by tough men in all weathers.
