That's very good but Eric is out of focus as he has way more beef than that

Thanks Gaz. It is the second painting that I have done in recent times - other one is on another thread - about 'Eraf'. I have plans to do more - just fishing around now for subject matter! My heart lies with old school so I will probably concentrate on anything more than 20 years old.... - watch this space.

Wow! That's terrific, as you say you even have Eric at the same height! So did you copy a photgraph Nige, would be really interesting to see that in comparison ?
Funnily enough Markus' Sister In Law is a painter and I am sure that she would like to see this.

This was the basis - I'm always taking pics of the boats out of the water at what would be unusual angles with a view to making them into art - something which I am at last starting to do.
