Marine pictures by Herefordshire-based painter Martin Lamport. These paintings are inspired by sailing and traveling experiences, using conditions and locations I have witnessed and subjects which caught my imagination. Some have stories attached. Some are merely for fun. They probably do not satisfy any modern definition of art. I just strive for craftsmanship. Taking my inspiration from the Mad Hatter I paint what I like and I like what I paint. I hope you do too.

This French barque, Idun, ran aground on the Suffolk coast in January 1912. I have tried to capture the watery sky that follows a stormy night. The sail in the background might be the lifeboat, Alfred Corry.
