I’m a bit disappointed in the sea , but decided to leave it as I have a tendency to fiddle and would make it much worse I think.

Super work, Paul and the sea looks great!

The sea has a “ stylised” look which caught my attention immediately because it was different! I actually prefer it like this so please don’t change it Paul.

Great detail on the tramp steamer Dixie.

Excellent boat Paul, nicely done.

Super detailing on the tramp steamer and I really like how you captured the foam upon the waves.

Good tramping!

Thank you all for you very kind comments. I won’t change it Marjorie it growing on me and definitely not now it has you seal of approval.

I just love your boat paintings, Paul! I rather like the way you have painted the sea. Please keep on scratching and let the boat paintings keep on appearing!!

Super Paul and I like the sea, it looks good.

Nice one Paul, I was always told seas and sky's are a happy accident when they turn out right. You can be very happy with these..👍

A beauty Paul , don't change anything.

I like this one very much.!!

I really like this one, it makes you wonder where it’s going.

Many thanks to you all for your generous comments, it’s really humbling when you receive such nice comments from fellow artist .

Such an o Interesting ship, beautifully painted Paul.

You are very good at detail Paul. I really like the way you've painted the sea too.

Carole and Diane thank you for you kind comments.

Your attention to detail is amazing Paul, something that I’m not able to do these days… an excellent piece and the sea is lovely!

Thank you Alan, I was concerned about the look of the sea but having had such good feedback I’m content with it now . Ido enjoy painting in detail properly one of the reasons I like marine art .

I agree with the others, I really like the way you've painted the sea - and the steamer as well of course!

I like the sea, Paul, it has a stylised look to it. Lovely detail on the steamer.

Well I like the sea too Paul! Terrific painting

Its the sea that caught my eye Paul, so well done. The steamer is excellent too.

Thank you all for you very kind comments, looks like the sea is a winner despite my original doubts.

Beautiful piece of marine art Paul.

Thank you Carole I appreciate you very kind comment.

A4 in A3 mount watercolour of a old tramp steamer sailing along the coast , an imaginary scene. I’ve always love marine art and at the moment have a terrible itch to paint boats and ships , rather than ignore the itch I’m going with the flow and scratching it . I’m also researching the history of marine art quite a fascinating subject and there are painting going back many years .

About the Artist
Paul (Dixie) Dean

I have sketched most of my life on and off I became interested in watercolour following a spinal injury whilst in hospital but did not follow it up. My eldest daughter bought me a beautiful wooden box set of half pans about twenty five years ago I dabbled on and off until retirement twelve years…
