Below are a few of the nautical theme paintings I have done in the last four years. "Homeward
bound" shows a tug going
out to meet an incoming ship, perhaps to bring a pilot on board. The tug is designed along the
lines of two radio control
model tugs I have built over the years.
"Galway Bay" is taken from a visit to Ireland
"High Seas" is a miniature painting and it is taken from a remembrance of of a storm on the North Atlantic when
I was
on a ship returning from a South American Cruise.
"Lighthouse" is a stylized miniature of Split Rock Lighthouse on the Great lakes, I have done
several versions of Split Rock.
"Lifting fog" was inspired by a similar painting that I liked and remembered on
the west coast.
,
"Burlington Breakwater" is a painting of the Breakwater in Burlington Vermont, when I was young I would
swim out to the breakwater
with my brothers.
"The Quay at Wexford" From a visit to Wexford Ireland. I also have a miniature of this painting
it was fun to do.
