Size: 6x6 in
An island in the sun, boats gather around this tropical resort casting sultry reflections that swirl a top foamy waters. This reminds me of all those exotic destinations where cruise ships, like flocks of graceful geese, silently maneuver their way into bustling tourist ports. I guess this is as close as I'll get to a vacation this summer but my mind is frolicking in the spray of ocean mist. Bon voyage!
I am trying out a smooth gesso surface with this painting and enjoyed not having to fight the rough waves of stiff canvas.
