Paintings of Boats and the Sea

Watercolor paintings of boats and the sea

These are my watercolor paintings of boats and the sea. I am not much of a sailor but I love painting seascapes, boats and anything to do with the sea. It is an interest I have had since I was a child. The transparency of watercolor (watercolour) painting is a perfect medium for this subject.
