A walk on a summer’s evening around 7pm, it is sunny and warm and the tide is high by Appledore Quayside. I look towards the old Shipyard of Richmond Dock and notice the small wooden boat resting and gently swaying. It looks comfortable with the sail rolled up, so I decide to capture it using fine paint brush and black ink onto 300gsm watercolour paper. I carry art materials around with me so I can spontaneously capture a moment.
The sultry evening was wonderfully busy with activity on the water. I was easily distracted, watching everyone having fun sailing, kayaking, quay jumping, and swimming.

This small boat is currently unframed, the watercolour paper size is 16.5cm x 14.5cm so it is easy to post if needed.
