Super yachts ~ In my previous blog I gave you a youtube video link to the Antibes Yacht Show, April 8th, 2010 http://www.antibesyachtshow.com/intro.asp?lang=EN
Just got back from the Antibes Yacht Show, tired and hungry, after 7 hours on the road, here begins my report.
My objectives were to look for subjects and possible commands for marine painting, assemble information for possible articles and meet interesting people maybe making new friends.
Back to work today, pressing on with a group of marine paintings, developing sketches, preparing boards…
Busy in the studio today.
I have some ideas to sketch re the possible marine commission I mentioned yesterday, but first, Admiral Nelson and super yachts.
I have several marine paintings in advance planning at present and several being sketched out including this one intended to be of a big superyacht (motor), with other yachts at dusk in Porto Fino but which yachts?
Want to nominate suitable superyachts?
Final day of the Monaco Yacht Show, the world’s foremost exhibition for Superyachts. I have a plan of action…
I won’t have time for marine painting, or to look for possible commissions. I’ll not even have much time to take photographs.
My new brochure (ask for a copy or down load free from www.frickers.co.uk home page) is being very well received.
I have been amused to have several people say, wow, collector’s item!
Amused because there were a lot of seriously expensive brochures at Monte Carlo!
What surprises are in store today?
