This is a wooden oar which I am going to
paint with a design by Laure Paillex from her book Songs of the Sea. |
 The oar has been thoroughly
cleaned and base coated, and the grey background and shading has been applied
using retarder. The oar has then been given a coat of clear glaze medium to
protect this first part of the painting. |

First
stage of basing in the ship. |

Detail of the ship now painted
in. |
