The old man and the sea

This is a cover for the book "the old man and the sea" i did in my free time for fun... Not at all done yet... what about the water color? i already told about my problems at seeing colors... comments critics appreciated.

lol at the boat, im no expert, but dont boats have ropes and a rudder and stuff like that?

for ur water http://images.aad.gov.au/img.py/b12.jpg (not sure if that actualy is water...)
and also http://www.serenityphotography.co.uk...Sunset%204.jpg (that is water)
