Puerto del Rosario, Fuerteventura, 15" x 11".
A tricky painting from the view of getting the perspective right, looking down on the boats and the town/horizon in the background. Those buildings in the background were given a fairly loose approach - not concentrating on all the architectural details and painting every window! Boat defenders are another tricky challenge. Leave them out and somehow the boat does not look realistic. A little bit of white gouache applied with a rigger brush was used for ropes and railings as a last stage.
