Many artists are most rigid in the way that they work. Following a consistent path to the production of a painting feels secure to these people. I, however, vary greatly in the way that I develop a painting. This piece was produced half in my car on site, with the balance executed in my studio. This mixed-media piece involved India ink on matboard administered by fountain brush and pen (the in-car bit) and then tinted with acrylic later on. I was attracted by the mess of nautical gear in combination with the lighthouse.
