Time for a drink
This is the second of my new series of boat paintings.
This painting is watercolour on paper. Image size, 42×46 cms.
I was really taken by this seagull ready to take a drink in one of the boats recently filled up by our heavy Autumn storms.
Thank you all so very much for all the kind comments, faves and watches. I really appreciate these.
