Very nice. Love the way the sails look, all poffed out in the wind and with the light shining on them. What a rough sea ! Very pretty work.

Comment from Jorge Gaete
I like the composition.
The depth works well to feature the sail boat.
Great color blend.
The detail is very good you can almost feel the mist.
Beautiful water movement.
Great work.

Comment from Alexemch
You are so talented and this is a beautiful painting. I love the overall green colour which I feel enhances this image this being a seascape and the green suits the water very well. The structure of the ship is great and I know cannot have been easy to do and make it look as if it IS sailing along in the wind.Excellent and thanks for sharing.

Comment from P J Hugman
I think this ship is really nicely painted and the whole picture blends in together. i like the way you have done the shadow and shading is on the sails of the ship. i also like the way the wave is splasing off the boat.

Comment from Sian- Louisa
I love the old sailing ships and this one is a beauty. The colours are so strong for a water colour. The sails hold a storm weathered look to them and the crests of the waves hit powerfully against her bow. Beautifully atmospheric

Hi Moonwillow,
You have an extraordinary way of chosing the right colors to express you drawings.
Presentation is definitely a 6
The appearance of the sea suggest a storm just ending by the lightened tones.
The sails still feel the effect of the squall and are full blown
The colors are blended to perfection and set the mood. 6
Composition 6
Interest is at it's peak 6
I wish I could bless this with what it seserves.
Very nicely done,
helvi :o)

Comment from Stormswept
This is a very good use of watercolour and I like the way you have depicted movement and rough seas but kept the colouring light and tones gentle. It makes a good combination. I also like the graduated background sky and the darker tones int he bottom section of the water which stabilises the whole picture

Comment from Stirak
Very nice rendering. Good depth. Good detail. Good color/tonal quality. Very effective in the water and the spray at the front of the ship. Good shading.
