Thank you for the gallery suggestion but I don't feel pictures like this make 'hangable' art as I pick subjects just for my own pleasure. I might donate it to Bridlington RNLI though to see if they want to do something with it.John (JWJarts)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17802012611212667028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5051629921855027241.post-18667199572356721542020-02-28T21:10:58.020+00:002020-02-28T21:10:58.020+00:00Ahoy shipmate.

The confidence issue is fairly normal: I think we usually fall short of our expectancy level, but others don't know how we the artist imagined the finished product and therefore don't know what we are aiming for. Go for it, really. I know the paper is A3, but how large is the drawing?

I certainly 'connected' with the subject as soon as I first saw the photograph, and I think that helps a lot.
