Canal Arts (Terence)

[mark99]

Terence has just done me a 3 gallon can.

 

I sent in a photo of the signwriting and I like the way the signwriting on finished can approximates the original signwriting on the boat (by Dave Moore).

 

Event the 3D shadowing is done in identical colour.

Terence has painted several items for me, like you I am very pleased with them

 

 

I know not all, by any means like "Roses and Castles", But I do.

I do like those barrels. Being very practical, the missus don't (but she loves the artwork). Got to think of something useful to put in them...........

Mark, sad this is I know, but I have put 3 lengths of split clear (car windscreen washer tubing) polly tubing round the bottom of the can at approx 120 degree spacing.

 

This protects both the boat roof and the bottom ot the can.

What a very clever way to advertise your wares... But I don't want one.

Come on then Stickleback what's clever? or is it just the modern way?

 

I tend to research things more than most being conservative about cash release to others and I find the modern media (Twitter web, reviews) as good way of checking things out.

Terence also does an excellent course at Stoke Bruerne on Canal; Painting, most people will achieve a far better standard than they expect, you will have a very enjoyable weekend and those that have tried before will learn a great deal more.

What a delightful euphemism. Stingy so'n'so, you mean. Greeno (English Language section) awarded.
