        Hello everyone

        Thought I’d have a go at painting something at speed. This didn’t take long and I know it is a bit rough round the edges. However I like it enough to perhaps have another try with just a bit more finesse! 15×11 in.

        Mike :)

            Excellent! I think you did a wonderful job, especially for being painting at speed. Well done!

                I like it a lot Mike, and I think you should do many more of these.

                        A figure or two, to provide a point of interest, is all it needs! :thumbsup:

                            Thanks for commenting Sharryn Balaji Ernst & Rich. If I do a re-vamp of this one Rich I will put some figures in; good idea.

                            Mike :)

                                Well done, Mike! Keep up the great work!

                                I’m not sure what “at speed” means. I’ve found recently that limited painting time really forces me to focus on what is important. Perhaps it’s similar.

                                Cheers!

                                    It’s gorgeous Mike! How long do you think it took you to paint?

                                                I really like this Mike :clap: Reminds me a wee bit of Tim Wilmont’s water scenes.

                                                    Frank, Kate, Bill, Patrik & Dhana – thank you.

                                                    I suppose it took me about an hour and a half to paint plus 15 minutes to roughly sketch the scene. You can see that my boats are pretty crude and in the background just ‘indicated’. I would absolutely love to be able to paint like Tim Wilmot but I’m not there yet! :crossfingers:

                                                    Usually watercolours take me a little longer. However, yesterday I was full of cold with a sore throat and really felt lousy – so much so that all I felt like doing was to sling paint around! They say painting is very therapeutic and it’s true – I forgot how rough I felt.

                                                    Mike :)
