AND THE SHIPPING FORECAST IS ... Original Oil Painting by Peter Goodhall

´Rockall, Malin, Hebrides. Southwest gale 8, veering west, severe gale 9. Squally showers. Moderate or good, occaisionally poor.´

That forecast sums up this original oil painting of a trawler heading back after fishing in some severe weather. Registered in Stornoway in the Outer Hebrides fishing boats like this one were designed and built to withstand the severest of weather. Not earning money if stuck in the harbour - out to sea they would go, often out fishing for a week at a time in all weathers.

This 20 x 30 inch traditional and dramatic original oil painting, accurately depicts this updated mid twentieth century trawler and with the sea painted in a style to depict the energy of the waves.
