Taking station by Paul (Dixie) Dean

Such a fine looking tug boat Paul

Like your boat pictures very much Paul.

Masts and wires look wobble-free to me, Paul. Nice one.

Thank you John , Stephen and David I appreciate your comments.

No sign of any wobble Paul and a very fine tug indeed.

Very good painting Paul and I can’t see any wobbly lines.

Super work Paul.

A fine painting Paul.

As far as I’m concerned you can’t go wrong with vintage ships and tugs…you do them so well.

A nice nostalgic painting Paul and done very well despite the problem with your hands.

Thank you everyone for the kind comments, I appreciate each one.

Beautiful painting, love it !

Thanks Fiona l appreciate your comment.

Always like your imagination in action Paul

Thank you Heather , I enjoyed painting this it’s the first marine painting I’ve done in a while .

Fine painting Dixie, and I always appreciate your background information. As a child I grew up in Cardiff which then had working docks (now long gone) and my dad would drive us around looking at the different boats, tugs etc, all fascinating.

Thank you Tessa , yes Cardiff and Barry had large docks I remember going to St Athen via both the above on the train, I was also impressed with Woodhams scrap yard ,full of steam engines.

Oh yes! Great job Paul!

Thanks Alan , I’ve tried to keep the detailing less in this painting and wasn’t sure about it to be honest but that’s me fretting about less details.
