Geoff Hunt: Painting in the Studio Retail $19.95 During the production of the documentary, Geoff Hunt: Portrait of a Marine Artist, SEA~TV was allowed full access to Hunt’s studio. During two days of the production Geoff allowed a rare, candid shoot of his work in progress. Geoff was beginning the sketch for a painting, which would ultimately be titled First Shots. It depicts the first cannon shots fired at Lord Nelson’s ship, Victory, as it approached the famous Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. We join Geoff as he is sketching and then he goes on to begin painting the ship, the sails, the sky and the sea. Six months later we see him working on the final painting. It is a rare chance to watch a world-class artist build a painting in its crucial formative stages and see how it emerges into the final painting. Informative and inspiring for all artists.
