Steamboats
Steamboats

I've created two drawings recently of steamboats. One of them is two steamboats on the River at sunset. There's a steamboat in the foreground who's loading up bales of cotton and a steamboat in the back just passing.

Steamboat at Night

There's another one I've done of a night scene on the River, of a steamboat that really doesn't exist, it's one a kind of created. Actually all of the ones I've drawn I've created, these steamboats don't actually exist, but they come from ideas and books I've seen of steamboats.
