Islay-born artist Heather Dewar has had a love of portrait drawing from a young age and relishes the challenge of capturing someone's likeness. She travels to Barra to meet Michael MacNeil, who has worked for Caledonian MacBrayne for many years. While people might not recognise his face, many in the Hebrides will recognise his voice as that of the assured captain welcoming his passengers on board. Michael chats to Heather about his lifelong connection with the sea and his journey from fishermen to ferry skipper.
