Original Oil Painting by Geoffrey C. Smith
14"W x 11"H
 
Washed ashore and surrendered to time, the skeletal remains of a once-seaworthy boat rest quietly under a silver sky. The hull, bruised with indigo, gold, and ivory, leans gently toward the horizon, its story etched into every stroke. The shore is a mosaic of broken greens and warm sand, rich with texture and motion, as if nature itself were reclaiming the wreck. With a masterful use of palette knife, Geoffrey C. Smith transforms decay into poetry - reminding us that even in stillness, there is rhythm; even in ruin, there is beauty.
