Sunrise over the Bay in acrylics

This one was fun to paint.  The reference photo was black and white so I decided to paint it as a sunrise scene.  Did a little study painting first to decide on the colours combination etc.  Really pleased with how it turned out.

Sunrise over the Bay measures 6 x 6 inches and is painted on Raymar Feather Lite Canvas panel.

 

Many thanks to Rob for the reference photo.

Cruising the Canals in watercolours

This one was fun to paint.  It brought back memories of  my holiday to the UK many years ago.  I loved cruising the canals and just watching the beautiful landscape pass by.

All my Christmas shopping is done - thank goodness.  Shops were hectic as usual.   Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Cruising the Canals measures approx. 10 x 8 inches and is painted on 300gsm rough Arches watercolour paper.

Many thanks to Elaine Cross for the reference photo.

Dawn Sail in oils

I love the colours of this one and had fun painting the sky and sea.  The most difficult part was painting the sails and the little boat but I eventually got there.   

Dawn Sail measures 5 x 7 inches and is painted on Ampersand Gessobord panel.

All Aboard in oils

I thought "All Aboard" was rather an appropriate title for this painting.  I really enjoyed painting it and I love the boats reflection in the water.

All Aboard measures 7 x 5 inches and is painted on Ampersand Gessobord

Many thanks to Liz Jones for the reference photo.
