wonderful artwork, so beautifully done, gorgeous imagery. hugsxxx

If this is an indication of what is to come, cant wait for the full length seascape!

great watercolour Colin – a lot of movement and I particularly like the colours in the sea and the detailed boats – just great

Great piece of work

Superb – a definite favourite!

what a fantastic piece of art! i could feel the movement in the water! just excellent colin!

I see great strides in your work Colin, from good to excellent. I particularly like the sky, but the ships and sea are very impressive too.

Beautiful art, Colin. Agnes xx

the bleed in the sky, across a cream tinted paper adds the majesty and power both hardy and turner were trying to achieve,
unfortunately (now this is only a comment not a critisism, the seascape artists of the day seperated the watercraft close to light houses and cliffs by a sense of impending ’ accident of natural power’ your interpretation has brought that imagery so close that the power of the ocean to cause the mishap and the gathering closeness of the vessels implies imiment seamanship catastrophies caused by a sense of fleeing the harbour.
colours, presentation and individual interpretation here is great!!
and I like those commenting above look forward to the “full version”
T.O.L.A.

Wonderful work Colin and I agree with Brian.

Great watercolour, Colin !!
The movement in the ships and the water is excelent !

beautiful watercolour, i like the colour and the movement of the sea and the atmosphere…sei molto bravo,Colin!

Very impressive piece of work, Colin, especially considering the small size. Wonderful detail.

Very very nice watercolor Colin. The colors are quite beautiful….gives it an old master look. This is a favorite for me.

O What a glorious painting sweetheART you truly are a Master at your craft (x’cuze the pun’)lol! ;} hugglez

Colin, you have outdone yourself in this one, the movement is really something.

A good creative idea of yours to move the boats a little. That takes it beyond being a copy of someone else’s work and makes it more your own.

Very nice Colin. Confident and expressive handling of the paint. You’re seascapes have reminded me that I must make an attempt at copying one of my own.

I’m proud to say this was featured in both, Nautical and Seascapes groups!

Thanks to those who deemed it worthy

FABULOUS

Wonnnnderful, love how you did the water, the color is amazing, the whole painting is perfectly done. xooxox

Hi Colin..This is a fantastic painting. You should enter it in the new challenge. From Masterpiece. It would fit the theme.

What a wonderful painting Colin. The sky has such a luminous quality. You have captured a very special light that is not easy to do. You have a very good feel for rough waters. Colors are lovely.

A beautiful painting that captures the energy of the ocean.. I love this.

Wonderful work colin

lovely work

You really do obtain some lovely textural effects in your watercolours Colin. That ocean is magnificent.

A lovely watercolour. A smashing sky – love your treatment of the sea and the boats. It certainly looks rough. Your are so right about art, in a way it is a healer even if it doesn’t completely heal. I love to paint as much as I can.

I have the full painting in my gallery as well, titled, ‘Ramsgate Harbour’. If you like the town and harbour, (I’ve never visited) then you might like to peruse it.

Thank you very much for your kind comments and favoritings!

I can see that this was a tough one, but one to savor when done. Ahhhh. So enjoyable to view, Colin.

wow awesome work with such incredible detailing, worth the work though!!!!

YOU WROTE: “Unless you are an expert forger painter – like the late Tom Keating”. Many years ago when I was in my twenties I bought a book about Tom Keating – quite a character :)
