Boscastle Boys!

It's always extra nice creating a painting of people and places I know, so when my friend Frank asked me if I would paint him and 'the boys' wakeboarding in Boscastle harbour, I was
ever so pleased.

I've never painted Boscastle before, despite it being my kind of perfect subject with its higgledy piggledy houses, lanes and footpaths. I hadn't realised how many trees surround the village until I had to paint them in....it's practically surrounded by forest! Frank had also asked if the Cobweb pub could go in which took a bit of artistic licence as it can't actually be seen from the harbour. His girlfriend and chihuahuas had to feature too so I put them strolling along the harbour wall.

I love how it turned out, the boys on the boat look like they are having the best time! I might even be inspired to do a few more Boscastle scenes now, I'd overlooked how deliciously paint-able it all is. Thanks Frank!
