Fishing Boats on the Beach - after Van Gogh

Click Image to see larger version in my gallery
11 x 16 in  -  28 x 41 cm.     The painting above, is a copy I did a while ago, of a watercolor by Vincent Van Gogh. The image below is his orginal.

You can sometimes (they keep moving the link) get to a larger web copy of the original painting by clicking on the image or by clicking here. Vincent also did an oil of the same view which you can see here. I much prefer the colors of the watercolor. What do you think?

8 x 5.5 in - 20 x 14 cm.
I painted this as a House Warming present. This is the first fime I have tried to de-stress an area of a building, the upper floor which is not part of their home. Have I pulled it off? You decide.

I am pleased with the figures who are just about recognisable and also (to me) look to be happy.

Adendum
Here are the couple with the painting.

5 x 7 in  -  13 x 18 cm.     This time you can see the driver sitting in the vehicle. The driver of the Taxi is female and I think you can still see that in the painting.
