Description Port Turbot is a fanciful sea town of my own making, vaguely inspired by the town of whitby on the east coast of Britian.
I wasn't sure what category to put this in as it isn't really what I call "fantasy" I would appreciate your opinion on this....

This is just awesome sketching.  Must have taken a while to do?  I love this.  There is so much detail in every bit and I would love to live here too; high up in that castle.

man, i'll love to stay in Cliff Hotel. It's on high enough ground to avoid freak floods, it's got a clear view of the horizon, and it's a comfortable walking distance from the port marketplace. I wonder what the back of the houses look like from there..

The port cove could use a lighthouse, or a small cluster of buoys. It'll be easier for the fishermen to find their way through the entrance at night.

I'm liking that cafe. A LOT <3 Here there be sea serpents? I'll love to see a sea serpent illustrated in your style.

It's a very nice hotel too! fish for breakfast every morning-for lunch and dinner too, but the cafe does have cookies,cakes and endless cups of coffee and tea so you should be ok I think you are right about a lighthouse for the harbour!!...I will have to work on a sea serpant, it's something I have been thinking about...

Quilsnap [2011-05-13 17:31:04 +0000 UTC]

that seems like an awfully large piece. the last large watercolour I did myself was rather simple. buildings are so much fun to look at, I think its all those systematic lines.
y'know it kind of makes me want to make map-like paintings.

ellfi In reply to Quilsnap [2011-05-13 17:36:49 +0000 UTC]

mmmmm it's about 16 x 20 inches so one of my bigger paintings. I think you should do some map-like paintings!

Quilsnap In reply to ellfi [2011-05-13 18:48:37 +0000 UTC]

thats not too big at all
I painted a green lady thats 44x30
map paintings are awesome, especially when they're in close enough to see what people are up to

It's a real pleasure to discover so elaborated graphic works.
You have a very fine line and well designed (and maybe you'll have to work and architecture).
Excellent.


sorry for my bad English

Where did you draw it actually? On canvas or paper?
