Lovely fresh painting Jane, your boat and reflections are spot on!

I agree with Fiona, Jane, this is very well done. I also like the boat and the reflections!!

Like your treatment of the watercolour reflections in this watercolour Jane, they can be tricky to paint and keep them not looking overworked in this medium, well done

Thank you Fiona, Mia and Graham - your comments are much appreciated.

This is super, Jane! Agree with Mia, the reflections are so well done!

Seok Yam, what really caught my eye in this scene were the reflections in the ripples of the red boat and the stark brown poles which ensure the little ferry moors in just the right place for the cars to drive on. Reflections are always a challenge and I have no doubt there are other effective ways to show them - will keep experimenting! Thanks for commenting.

Hi Jane, Thanks for the mail. The picture is what I call a graphic image created in computer software from my own photograph. I do like your the delicate touch of your work. Best wshes, Paul

This little ferry makes the short run from Castletownbeare on the Beara Peninsula (S W Ireland) to Beare Island. It carries a couple of cars and foot passnegers and is a lifeline for the folk who live on the island. Did this today from a photo I took last summer.
