For 2 decades I sailed round the world as Artist in Residence on Ships, delivering practical painting sessions to amuse passengers on sea days.
On Shore days I headed off with my box easel searching for exciting locations to paint!
The only proviso was to make sure to be back on board before the ship sails without you!
There’s a whole series on the go- paintings and sketches, and I am working on publishing my illustrations and adventures in my Autobiography A COLOURFUL LIFE.
Here’s a taster! Check out the full story behind each picture in my SPIRIT OF ADVENTURE blog
