Seen Better Days

On Brighton beach is a free boating museum, which was more just a collection of old bits and peices that didn’t work anymore. This one took my fancy and is now in my Red Bubble portfolio.

    Thanks for the feedback everyone, I’m blown away I amost didn’t post this image as I didn’t think it was up for scratch, but I liked the mood in it, similar to the other Brighton image I shared Front Row Seats.

    tonilouise – no I haven’t heard that one before but I’ll google Darren Brass and check him out, cheers.

    This one has got me Craig. I usually know what to say but in this case I I keep coming back to look at it and I can’t for the life of me explain why. Hence, inspirational.

    I love the emotion you’ve conveyed with this piece – it’s so forlorn, and the sky makes it seem almost on the edge of destruction. That’s the way I see it anyway… I’m sure it means different things to different people, and that is what great art is all about =) Well-done! Also, thank you for the visit to my site =) I really appreciate the support!
