Frank Etchells | Four Tethered Boats

Four Tethered Boats

On a trip to Whitby in Yorkshire in 2012 and a walk through the town brought us to the harbour quay side and these tethered boats. So colourful and clean, nicely reflecting in the water of the River Esk and a large stack of lobster pots behind.

'Three Tethered Boats, Whitby' as a heavy pencil drawing and light reflections of the quayside and hulls of the boats to the surface of the water. I was so taken with the original colours of the boats and the quayside supports with the lobster pots stacked on top of each other I felt a need to try to strip it back to a basic drawing type rendition.

On a trip to Whitby in Yorkshire in 2012 and a walk through the town brought us to the harbour quay side and these small tethered boats, their bows and ropes reflected in the sea water. So colourful and clean, lobster pots neatly in stacks on the walkway.
