Ship paintings and maritime scenes old and modern in watercolour oils or acrylic

“You might be retired from a life at sea of just interested in ships and the sea. You may have seen your old ship in the Old Ship Picture Gallery, and would like a painting of it that captures that atmosphere of that bygone era of shipping. You may have been on a cruise or in your younger days traveled between continents on an old steamship. Treat yourself to a painting of that ship or make a gift of a painting of the ship that a relative or friend has served or traveled on. It would certainly bring them great pleasure. You may of course be one of the many people who just gain pleasure by owning a painting, be it of that bygone era or the shipping of today.

If the ship you require is not in the Old Ship Picture Gallery, I have extensive historical shipping resources, and I can probably find a picture of the required vessel for your painting.

I accept commissions from shipping companies, maritime organisations or publications celebrating an company anniversary. I can provide an impression of a new build vessel for publicity material. I can also supply an original painting of an old ship or maritime scene you can display in your offices, plus a number of limited addition prints for valued customers and publicity material.

Please e-mail me (click on the link to the left), telephone or write to me to discuss your requirements.”

I accept commissions for maritime subjects in Watercolour, Oils and Acryllics

Prices (mounted but unframed and not including Post and Packaging):

For a watercolour size 10" x 6 1/2" mounted to 16" x 12" = £120 (+ P&P)

For a watercolour size 13 1/2" x 10" mounted to 20" x 16" = £200 (+ P&P)

Please contact me for prices of other sizes

My preferred mounts are Textured Antique White.

I work either from source material (Photographs etc.) or by painting on location. For Marine subjects I have a large personal collection of reference material in which to work from for Merchant ships and old Commercial sailing ships. My work is executed using stable pigments of the best quality and I work on 100% rag - acid free paper.

Copyright: In common with normal practice I will retain the copyright, and will scan the image for my own records.

Prints are available of some of the paintings in the sample gallery, as indicated at the bottom of the picture.

Why not have a watercolour painting done of any ship in the Old Ship Picture Gallery. If it is not in the gallery, I can research a ship for your painting.
