Fishing Boat At Mudeford Quay - oil painting

In this painting can be seen a scene of some local fishermen chatting after working and off loading a catch on a hot summers day in august. Seagulls continue to circulate on the off chance of finding some of the catch left over.

The location is the quay at Mudeford, along Christchurch Bay, Dorset on the south coast of the UK. The Haven Inn is one of the small, listed buildings in this quay.

In the distance can be seen the town of Christchurch, across the bay. The painting measures 28” x 20” and is painted in oils on smooth mounting board.

The final painting can be seen in detail here.

Winter Fishing at Weston Shore, Southampton

Winter Fishing at Weston Shore, Southampton

A group of people are seen fishing in Southampton Water, on Weston Shore, Southampton, during a sunny winters afternoon. The shore is made up of shingle, and this location is near to the car park. On the opposite side of the water is a part of the port of Southampton where a 'Wallenius Wilhelmsen' ship is in dock, next to the distinctive silos which are a local landmark at the entrance to the port.

The painting is done in oils on a canvas board measuring 16” x 20”, and was painted during autumn 2013, based on a photo taken during January of that year.
