Running art workshops on cruise ships means that I get to spend a lot of time in shipyards, observing the many activities that go on there. Constanta Shipyard in Romania is a particularly busy container port, and I was so mesmerised by the scene that I just felt compelled to draw it.
The truth is; there is so much activity going on that shortcuts have to be found, mostly through blending elements together to create more of a loose interpretation, and hope that the overall impression is convincing enough. It's worth noting that I haven't used any erasing techniques; all the fine highlights have been created negatively, by carefully shading around them.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
ORIGINAL PENCIL DRAWING
Almost all watercolour paintings produced by Peter Woolley are developed from pencil
sketches made on-site or in the studio. In the course of that development, further working sketches
are often produced in order to explore the subject and work towards a final, satisfactory
composition. This drawing is a unique document; if it has been used in the process of creating a finished watercolour, it may contain marks of handling or even spots of watercolour. Such marks should not considered flaws; instead, they should be thought of as an integral part of the character of the drawing. To protect
its integrity, the artist has signed and dated it on the reverse.
This original drawing has been produced on 160lb smooth, white paper, with a 2B graphite pencil. For drawing dimensions, please see the main information panel above. The price quoted is for the drawing to be supplied to you unframed, in protective packaging with rigid backing panel, ready to take to a framer. A quote for framed work will be provided on request.
