As the picture for author David J B Smith next book cover nears completion I’m starting another and pushing harder to find the key to “The Quay of Gaillac”. 
This new painting will show an American Cutlass 40 in light airs.
Here is the first stage, enjoy.
The Cutlass 40 a very modern yacht, about to win a single handed race which my client described as his biggest achievement so far, more about this soon on my blog.
I love his typically positive American attitude !
He also kindly said he admires my work and wishes to have an example in his collection.
