Description Its the last year of upper secondary school and im attending the Art diploma. We have about 20-25 people on the course and believe it or not, im the only guy there!

soo... we have all sort of tasks, like writing an essay on some theme, art media or whatever.. and we have to keep a Journal of all the thoughts and works we do.. We have 5 choices of tasks and ive chosen the one about sea, lakes and stuff... also, i have to design a t-shirt with a theme of pollution in water.. I already have an idea on that, dont worry..

So heres my 1st painting. Nothing special, i just wanted to practice painting water and boats. I love big boats like these..

Done in Photoshop CS2.
Took me 3h maybe more...
Wacom was used.
A reference pic of the boat was used. Here it is: [link]

Hope you like it!

haha.. yea, the crew wasn't on my mind while painting.. but at the last moment ive managed to put the captain on the front deck.. as you see.
Maybe hes sailing alone...

That's great! You should try things other than space ships too, because although they are amazing, you apparently can do much more!
