THE APPROACHING STORM

 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches, 2020/2021

unframed original painting $190

Sea waves crash on sunlit boulders,

Nacreous curtains flying high.

Out across the shining ocean,

Clouds are gray, a storm is nigh.

Young gulls love the wind and water,

Playing in the surf and sun, but

Mother Gull cries "Fun is over!

Lets fly home, a storm has come".

The boat is a gaff-rigged six-meter canoe yawl, named "Eun Na Mara" (Scottish Gaelic for "Bird of the Sea"), and designed by Iain Oughtred.  I started building her in the '80s - I still have the molds and the lessons she taught me.  This version was made in Australia (looks kind of like me at the helm).
