Light houses

These are some of the light houses I've done over the years. The first is a pen and ink. The second is pastel on colored paper and the third is a charcoal on colored paper. What do you think? Which is best? Please comment. Thank you.

Ships

I don't do many seascapes or ocean scenes because they seem to be over done. I have done a few but only out of my head. In other words I didn't paint a scene from a picture or of another painting. Here are a few I've done of a sailboat and some ships. The ships I did after reading fair blows the wind by Louis l'amour. I have also done a few lighthouses. I will post them later. The charcoal ship drawing has gotten the most attention over the years and I felt it was my worst ship drawing. Go figure! Well, if you like them or if you don't please leave a comment. Thank you.

Under the surface

This is a charcoal on blue pastel paper. I created the light filtering through the water by lightly covering the paper with charcoal then removing some with a kneadable eraser. Please leave a comment.
