“In the Wake of Bligh” (mid Pacific Ocean)

11” x 19” | watercolour

A number of years ago a group of 4 men constructed and sailed a small cutter to re enact Captain Bligh’s epic voyage following the famous mutiny on the Bounty.

They called the boat the “Bounty boat” and completed the voyage in almost exactly the same time as Bligh.  This watercolour is one of three ideas for the commission that I received from one of the expedition’s members.
