Livorno, Italy, 15" x 11"
The 'New Venice' area of Livorno in Italy, and a horseshoe-shaped wide canal running around the centre of the older part of Livorno. Here a mixture of craft, and just up my street as a painting subject. Mainly modern boats, not really commercial, but I like painting scenes like this - a background, boats and reflections middle ground and maybe something in the foreground - a jetty or similar.

Saltash, UK. Watercolour, 15" x 11"
Ooh I went quite blue on this one. A painting based on a photo of mine taken down in Cornwall and a very bright September day - very warm for the time of year. It's great that in just one location there are probably hundreds of painting subjects and compositions to be had, just by turning around. I thought this one made an interesting composition with the curve of boats leading into the scene.

Livorno, Italy, Watercolour, 15" x 11"
The Via Arsenale which connects Livorno City with the Port area. I nice row of boats of moored up against the side of the bridge attracted me to the scene, as well as the reflections of the distant building.

Livorno, Italy, 15" x 11"
A view up to the port area of Livorno in Italy. I went quite loose on this one as regards the shapes of the boats in the marina, the shadows, and details like windows. To be honest, I find it a very relaxing way of painting and great fun, rather than going for ultra detail.

Livorno, Italy, Watercolour, 15" x 11"
The busy port town/city of Livorno in Italy, and a bridge over one of the wide canals circling the older area. Here I have gone landscape orientation to capture the bridge, the arch and the reflection of the tall building on the other side of the canal. I also went with a strong blue for the sky, to contrast with the warmth of the building. Careful not to do too much detail on the boats in the foreground!
