Please note that watercolours do not photo and copy well as the camera sees
through the paint differently to the human eye.
The result being one loses much of the finer nuances and the picture seems a bit gaudy.
If you do consider having one do come down and see them "In the Flesh".
No hard feelings if you decide No!
All proceeds go to the Royal National Lifeboat Institution
