traditional brush painting in denmark on “peggy bawn”

09GildedscrollworkI was asked to fly to denmark and repaint this lovely yacht as the owner could not find anyone locally to carry out the work to the standard he wanted. This was because the boat is authentically maintained without any modern 2 pack paint,epoxy resin etc,and so the painting had to be in traditional paint,and applied by brush.I used to do all my painting by brush before i learnt to use a spraygun..03Portbow

 

I was in denmark for 2 weeks, repainted the yacht , re-did

some of the gold  leaf cove line and scrollwork,re-varnished most of the spars, and came home well pleased with my work….
