The fresh air of Setubal

Hi everyone! After a very long almost forced break from painting I am happy to be finally back to work. It is still summer in Portugal and last weekend I went to paint to my favorite painting location - the fishing port of Setubal. As if it wasn't beautiful enough by itself there were also old ships there, the masts of which made the scene even more exiting! Oil on linen, 25x30cm / 10x12in.
