For the last 30 years, residents in Fraserburgh have been observing as a unique installation develop at the harbour. At W Bruce Ship Painter’s office, workers have been cleaning their brushes against one wall since the company launched and now it is attracting tourists from all over the world. The workers at the harbour have seen people from all walks of life come and admire the incredible façade. Ship painter Adrian Buchan said: "The amount of interest there has been in this wall is amazing, we've seen people from Germany and France coming to take photos." With the ship painters having no intention of hanging up their brushes any time soon and plenty of ships still needing painted, this work of art has only just begun.
