Those Were The Days
The Royal Navy in the 1940s and 1950s
A tribute to the World War Two Royal Navy by Richard Kennedy.
The artist comes from a Royal Navy background. Richard's Royal Navy collection feature warships from the 1940s and 1950s.
Richard began this range in the 1990s, using a variety of pencil types and the tip of a scalpel blade, to achieve maximum tonal depth and detail - with the smaller drawings taking several weeks and the larger drawings up to five months to complete.
The the notorious Arctic Convoys to North Russia are a special interest.
These detailed pencil and scalpel blade drawings are available as acid-free, conservation quality prints, signed by the artist in pencil.
All prints are exactly the same size as the original pictures.
See a selection of Rick's prints on display in the window at 60, West Street, Bridport, West Dorset.
