Hi james, Is that a spitfire? or is the plane called a sea fury? I don't know much about planes I'm afraid. Hey, that's clever stuff with the prop. The bits of fuzzy shading give a great illusion of the blades spinnig round. The little bit of sky shading does the job too. Nice work mate.

Thanks Chris. The aircraft represents a RN Hawker Sea Fury, c.1947/8. I was not sure about the sky, will probably use a heavier w/colour paper if I try a similar subject again.

About the Artist
James Foxworthy

Started watercolour painting in 1996 after being inspired by TV artists Alwyn Crawshaw and Ashley Jackson. No formal training, but some informal evening sessions with a local artist (the late Ken Middleton), plus a 5-day Edinburgh art break in 2003.
