The Old Luggers online Academy of Marine Painting is an ENTIRELY VIRTUAL establishment, a FREE -TO -AIR leisure and recreational site which we hope you'll enjoy and even pick up some useful painting hints.  Any of the Old Luggers material can be downloaded and copied for recreational and private but not commercial use.  Apart from the many illustrations reached via the links,  all the images in Old Luggers are from copyright work by British marine artist Austin Hill.  And finally - a  LUGGER is a traditional small working boat carrying a loose-footed four sided sail  hung from a yard,  but you knew that of course !
