Cris Hammond has been painting classic sailing ships and boats for over 30 years. His paintings of square rigged ships, schooners and classic yachts are enriched by his years of owning and sailing his own wooden boats on San Francisco Bay, the Pacific coast of the U.S. and Canada and the Eastern seaboard. Four generations of his family have gone to sea and his father, a merchant seaman, introduced him to salt water at the age of four. His original maritime paintings and Giclee prints capture the feel of the ocean in all its moods. Each of the classic sailing vessels depicted in his paintings are shown the way a sailor would have them given the wind and sea conditions at the moment. Sailors will know that these paintings were done by someone who's been there. For more than 30 years his paintings have been collected and cherished by collectors, sailors and those who love the beauty of a classic vessel under sail. Scroll down to visit the gallery.
