This little container boat turned up right alongside the cargo boat I was watching, parked next to it and containers were transferred from one boat to the next . This is the first time I have observed side by side cargo transport transfers. I am still marvelling at the logistics of it all




On the Illustration side I have been experimenting with making different types of water textures that might come in useful for depicting river, sea or ocean waves. I found this piece of flat driftwood that had kind of organic indentations, and when rubbed with a dry pencil crayon produced lovely wave like marks.
