New: “Beached”

Came across this scene years ago, somewhere on the Cape…I think in Chatham…and took a photo as reference for a future painting. Did a smaller piece based on this scene years ago, but came across the photo again, and felt it warranted being painted on a larger canvas. On the Cape, at any bay, cove, or harbor where there are boats moored, dingies lay scattered along the shores. They seem to belong to no one, and everyone, as if they’re communal vessels to be used to paddle to your boat, and then be returned at the end of the day. “Beached” 36 x 36.
