This is just fantastic. Really captures the feel of the turbulent ocean and the power and glory of the ship's. My favourite. Just wish I was as good as you.

Artist Reply: What a wonderful thing to say! Wow thank you Kevin. I just read this week, they are going to build 4-5 of these beautiful yet threatening ship. "Frigate" war ships. Kevin it is a pleasure to know you and you are a great artist, just different than me. Have a great day.
