After the wind and rain of last year, the summer of 2013 arguably produced the best painting weather for a long time. Marine artists especially welcomed the summer’s blue skies, sun drenched vistas and sparkling seas.

The results of their endeavours are not to be missed at the Royal Society of Marine Artists 68th annual exhibition at the Mall Galleries, London.

The Society was founded in 1939 and is widely recognised for being the focal point for much of Britain's finest marine art, and currently has a membership of 55.

The Society's common theme is the sea, and whilst most RSMA Members work covers a variety of subjects, paintings submitted for the Society's exhibitions must be related to tidal waters in some way. Traditions such as plein-air, topographical, historical, still life, and figure painting are all welcomed.

The work is representational in the broadest sense, and the range of media includes oil painting, watercolour, acrylics and pastels, as well as drawings, prints, and the occasional sculpture.
