"Morning Meeting" is a captivating 18x24” acrylic painting that draws viewers into a serene scene viewed from above. The composition centers on an assortment of rowboats, each brimming with individuality through an array of colors and materials. Vibrant hues of blue, orange, green, and red bring the boats to life, while meticulously painted details like planks, seats, and oars add authenticity and depth.

The overhead perspective employed in this piece highlights the boats' distinct characteristics and their intriguing arrangement. The overlapping positions of the rowboats create a rich tapestry of contrasts and textures, making the painting both visually engaging and dynamically complex. The play of color and form is balanced yet lively, inviting viewers to explore each boat’s nuances and the relationships between them.

This work is a celebration of the everyday beauty found in simple, often-overlooked subjects. The use of acrylics enhances the vibrancy and texture, making the scene almost tactile. "Morning Meeting" not only captures a moment of quiet activity but also transforms it into a fascinating visual narrative filled with depth and character.

Painting is framed in a black Cardinali Renewal Core floater frame and wired for hanging.
