9 x 12 inches ... oil on paper .. alla prima .. painted Nove 22/24
.. an old boat, once a treasure, left to rot, value: no measure.
 
Excellent Wayne. I like the light on the gunwales. There is something about old rotting boats. The stories they could tell of past happy days, with always the potential of repair and relaunch. And that probably should have gone with fiberglass.
 
In my parts it’s because the fish are depleted and the inshore fisherman was forced to abandon his boat and tackle leaving it to rot as none can follow behind. She’s gone boys, she’s gone.
 
I agree with John and think this old beauty still has dignity and tons of sentimental value. You made it look right at home, Wayne.
 
Aw, look at the old girl! I love this! It's lonely and sad, but your warm palette adds life to the scene. It's just wonderful. ❤️
