Drawing boats can be challenging on a number of fronts; getting the basic shape, making your boat float, and building believable reflections. A simple way to draw your boat uses a figure eight. Read through this post and you'll be able to see the figure 8 in the boat above. Drawing Your Boat The diagram above demonstrates drawing a boat using a figure 8. The figure 8 becomes the gunnels of the boat. The gunnels (or gunwales) are the tops of the boat's sides. Step 1: Draw a figure 8 as in the diagram. Note that the right hand orb of the ellipse is smaller then the left orb. We'll make the smaller orb the bow. Step 2: From the highest point on the right orb, draw a line down and to the left to create the bow, and another line down and to the right to create the stern. These lines can be somewhat curved as in the diagram or straight depending on the kind of boat you want to draw. Step 3: Draw a line to connect the bow and stern. And connect the right side of the bow to the bottom of the boat. Step 4: Erase the line that is dotted in the figure, which is not visible. Step 5. If the boat has a square stern, draw a line across the back of the left side of the figure. If the boat has a square bow, follow the same process. Floating Your Boat To make a boat look like it's floating we need to understand the water line, which is the line that marks where the top of the water hits the boat. The waterline is flat (horizontal) if the boat is at eye level, just like in the photo of the blue lobster boat in the top photo above. Note that this is true even though we are looking at both the stern and side of the blue boat. If you've seen a boat in a painting that looks like it's going up hill, it's because this was not understood. As you begin to look down on the boat more, it moves off the horizontal as in the photo on the bottom left. The more you can see of the inside of the boat, the less horizontal it will be in your painting. In the photo on the bottom right, where we are standing at the end of the boat and looking directly down on it, a line from the center of the bow to the center of the stern is vertical. Note also that the figure 8 approach works best when we can see part, but not all, of the inside of the boat. In the bottom two photos where we can see all of the inside of the boats it's not as helpful.

Embrace the serene simplicity of St Monans Harbour through this exquisite minimalist print that captures the essence of coastal tranquillity. With a calm and considered use of colour, the artwork showcases the soothing tones of sea greens and sky blues contrasting with the gentle whites and greys of the harbourside buildings which are portrayed with an almost geometric clarity. The composition places a singular boat, its hull painted with hints of vibrant red and blue, floating tranquilly in the harbour waters, whose reflection merges seamlessly with the sky in a symphony of colour. The juxtaposition of the bold, clean lines of the architecture against the soft, mirror-like quality of the water evokes a sense of stillness and reflection. This piece, a paragon of modern minimalism, uses negative space to invite the observer into a moment of contemplation, making it an ideal aesthetic addition for those who seek a touch of mindfulness in their surroundings. Whether adorning the wall of a sleek, contemporary space or adding a modern twist to a more traditional room, this print serves as a gentle reminder of the beauty found in simplicity and the peaceful moments of life by the sea.

A3 (29.7cm x 42 cm) poster-print entitled 'Robin Hood's Bay No.2' printed in grey and light blue. I'm a big fan of the Yorkshire coast (as you can see by my other landscapes), and this is a revisit to a special village. The place is full of mystery, and has a long history of smuggling, fishing and other sea-faring escapades. Robin Hood was supposed to have seen off some French pirates here, but this could be a far-fetched tale! The view is looking down the steep hill of New Road towards the sea front, with the jumble of rooftops, windows and chimneys. The poster is a professional digital print of an original linocut which has now sold out. It is printed on high quality 160g cream paper, hand-titled and signed. The poster will be posted securely in a card tube.
