Over the past few weeks I have been working on a project for the Derbyshire Open Art competition based on Solomon’s Temple and called Lonely Man. The shots below show how the image has progressed over the past few weeks:

The finished painting
Introducing the Lanarkshire. After a marathon painting session last weekend on the remaining masts and the sea I was able to complete this very detailed and complex painting. I am very happy with the painting and my client is “over the moon” with the end result. The painting is now in the process of fully drying (which could take another few weeks) before been varnished. In the meantime work continues on P.S. you legend and another piece for the Derbyshire Open Art Competition.
With the adding of all the masts and rigging the painting of the Lanarkshire is now nearing completion. A few minor details remain to be added onto the ship along with the sea and land in the background and foreground. All being well the painting should by completed over the weekend and so this will be my penultimate post, Launch date for the final image of the finished painting will be. Staaurday 18th April.
Nearing completion
The painting of the Lanarkshire is close to being completed now that the front masts and gantry have been added. The name of the ship has also been added too along with further people and port holes. Over the next few weeks I will add the remaining cables, port holes, sea and land. All being well the painting should be completed by the end of April.
