the scope of a sailboat makes it hard to fit comfortably in a piece of art and still get detail unless it’s big big big … the sail’s too tall, the boats are often long(!), and so decided to do this commission in 2 parts …
I don’t sail often but I got the opportunity to join in on the cruiser racing a few weeks ago, sailing on a catamaran … how comfy was that! -when I say I got the opportunity to join in that really means that I sat around and watched the sailors sail – I’ve joined in before on mono-hull boats that lean over one way or the other when you sail, where shade is at an impossible premium, where things are always poking into you or making you uncomfortable, where you can t put out the snacks for fear they’ll spill … this, this was not that!
comfort, shade and a nice sea breeze …
bless …
