The Art Work and Novels
of Yacht Designer Paul Fisher
Last updated 04/12/11
The Art Work
Welcome to my art work - the subject matter covers my own yacht and boat design work (with paintings based upon the many photographs received of
Selway Fisher Designs from around the world), views on and around the canal system in
the UK plus portraits and architecture.
Paul does take commissions, so if you want an
original water colour painting or print of your own boat, house etc contact him
at Paulfisherart@aol.com.
A newly added
section is on my sketch/work books which feature life in and around the Kennet
and Avon Canal in Wiltshire - just one sketch book at the moment but more to be
added soon - go to Sketch
Books.
The Novels
This
is a new venture of mine and to start with you will find extracts from my first
novel, which is presently looking for an agent/publisher. The novel is very much
in the Tom Sharpe mould (ie. full of raucous humour) and is based on my
first four years on the water as a dumbfounded and clueless youth - be warned,
the language is not pretty!
Enjoy the paintings and
the site, as it grows.

Whilst relaxing on Panther
No.2, his and his wife's narrowboat, Paul writes and the novel section of
this site gives snippets taken from his first, as yet unpublished novel
which is based on 4 years of his adolescence, learning to sail on the
Thames in the 1960's. |
