Original Oil Paintings by Dave Manning

[pier 72]

Having taken a break from model sub building and taken up oil painting in mid January 2009, I thought it was about time I "fused together" both of those OBSESSIONS. I have entered numerous competitions, won awards and have been selling quite a few lately.

In this forum I'll be posting my model boat/submarine themed paintings and THEY ARE AVAILABLE TO PURCHASE.
Prices (which are negotiable....) as well as all of my other paintings can be viewed on my web site http://www.pier72.com

Unless otherwise notified, each painting is 24"x18" in size.

Here's a taste][/url]

"Canberra Sub Regatta" probably self explanatory..............


"Rescue Boat" this one's actually SOLD!!!!


"Treading Lightly" a scene from the 2008 Model Sub Regatta in Canberra with one of the organisers setting up the mine field.
