paint little boats in pen and watercolour

For the last few years it's been a tradition for us to travel to the north coast of Spain for a little seaside holiday in September. Like migrating birds, we seem to be drawn (excuse the pun!) to the same little haunts each year - our favourite beaches, cliffs and estuaries.

Part of the tradition is for me to visit my favourite boats. It's a bit like visiting old friends - there they are, just where I saw them last. Some are a little more worse for the wear, some have a new coat of paint, but rarely is one gone or there is a new one.

What does change each time you visit boats, is the tide and the weather. So I'll happily keep painting these boats over and over again, because each time there's something a bit different.

Here are 2 old friends of mine I've sketched many times before, and now you can paint along too.

Happy painting!
