Terrific work Paul

Totally believable botas - love it

Should of course be boats!

Thank you all for your comments I appreciate them .

Back in Liverpool Dixie…? nice one

It could well be a Sylvia , it imagined scenery and do use a lot of the Liverpool docks on my paintings along with London.

Love everything about this one, you are an excellent boat painter!!

Excellent ship and boats Paul. I like the treatment of the faded out background and the muted palette.

Thank you Valerie and Fiona for you kind comments , it’s come out a little lighter than the actual painting Fiona but not much lighter . I wanted it to have that early morning cold not a lot of colour look to it .

An impressive scene, Paul - well done!

Thank you Anne

Fine nautical scene Paul. Always a good topic for me.
