you have some really good paintings in your portfolio,and drawings i,m glad some more people are doing some drawing i think it sometimes gets forgotten as to how good a medium it can be...chris

Cheers Chris, I've always loved pencil, it was the only medium i felt comfortable with at school. I think it is THE most important medium. You have to have the ability to SEE and from that you can develop skills with composition and use of paint. It simplifies everything by making it monochrome so you see the details of contrast. Thanks for the comments.

Wonderful action, so well painted

"A typical Cowes Week scene of a bright summers day with waves glistening and a warm breeze blowing. A couple of SB3 keelboats trade tacks close to the beach by Cowes Green to cheat the flood tide. The sun casts the shadows of the crisp, white sails into a cool blue-grey, emphasizing the warm beach behind."
