Almost there. 9x12, oils on board.


I had a feeling for this painting. And I think that it has come out with the feeling that I had for it, movement. I hope that you can see that these two chaps are in a race, and they haven`t got very far to go to win.

    Hi Vic,

    When this painting of yours came up on my blog, I thought is was a Manet painting that I haven't seen. Your work is amazing my friend. I almost got see sick, you certainly captured the motion.
    All the best.

    Wonderful painting Vic, and yes you certainly did capture the movement. I really like your composition, it's interesting, the position of the boat and figures, and the colors of your palette.

    Hi from Canada Vic!... A beautiful piece... great design and action in the piece! I agree with Joan on this one. Could be members from Renoir's Boating Party... after the regatta!

    I loved your bridge series too...very pastoral and soothing! Great stuff!
    Cheers!
