There is no voyage more meaningful than the one that leads you home. The Journey Home captures that quiet, emotional return—where experience has reshaped both sailor and vessel. The Merrymaid moves with a sense of knowing, carrying stories within her sails. A deeply personal piece for those who understand that the sea changes you—and home is never quite the same again.

Numbered Certificate of Authenticity Included.
Award-winning artist renowned for creating some of the most beautiful, magnificent and powerful contemporary paintings of the 21st Century.
Rebecca is UK’s leading contemporary painter in pre-1940s luxury sailing yachts. A self taught artist who was trained under her Grandfather and renowned French artist Baron Raymond de Longueuil. Their story began when they used to paint together in the foothills of The Pyrenees.
Rebecca began her art career by selling her paintings on the streets of Nottingham. She then rose to success from the early age of 16 winning National painting awards presented by HRH Prince of Wales and Princess Alexandra.
Each painting has a story worth telling. If you would like a one-of-a-kind portrait from any of our collections, Rebecca takes on a small number of bespoke commissions each year. Each painting is made entirely to order, using high-quality materials including 24ct gold leaf, silver, and mother of pearl.
Working directly with you, Rebecca captures every detail of your chosen subject — whether it’s the elegant lines of a yacht, the majesty of wildlife, or the beauty of landscapes. She brings the same attention to detail found throughout our collections, from the finest brushstrokes to the play of light and shadow. The result is a living piece of art, built to the exact dimensions of your space and finished to the same standard as her exhibition work.
Whether you’re drawn to marine subjects, wildlife portraits, or any other theme from our galleries, each commission becomes a unique masterpiece tailored specifically for you.
