M. Winter is taking his job seriously this year.
I’ve been working all over the “Bamora” picture, mostly evidently on the sky.

The story of “Waterwitch” is a remarkable insight into the life and times of a lucky ship.
Among other things today I posted a copy of the classic painting “Waterwitch off Gribben Head” to a client in the USA. “Waterwitch” has become one of my most popular prints, prices from £147.00. I feel honoured to have sold many of the prints to descendants of Waterwitch people.
Today I had yet another privilege on my Facebook page, I was joined with an ex submariner, one of a special breed of sailor. I have a great respect for all professional sailors, sub mariners are though a breed apart. I’ve painted a number of subs including HMS Dreadnought and shown here HMS Unique, the latter for the son of the man commanding her when she was lost with all hands in mysterious circumstances 1942 in the Bay of Biscay.
I’ll announce on these pages and my blog when my new web site which will specialise in Landscapes is online and can be viewed.
Soon.
