Small whaling Scene

I don't know now I come up with these titles but they work. I just imagine that they would have to use banners and signs to get the word out, Worthy Whalers Wanted!

The Call to all Whalers!

So this is an antique frame. I painted this on canvas so it is not behind glass.

The colors go well with the other paintings that I have done. Most of my work blends with each painting that
I have done in the past. These both are for sale on ETSY today.

I love anything nautical. My house is full of all kinds of props! I like how these look sitting behind the ducks.

Here is the painting in its entirety. It measures about 11"x13" Check it out on Etsy!

For Scale

I use acrylic paint. I love to use vibrant colors to depict things but also manage to subdue them if necessary, don't like garish colors.

I wrote an inspirational saying on the back. Isn't this so true? Sometimes, when I look back at what we have had to do, I think WOW, how did we ever do it! Doing what looks

impossible starts with the first step...

Enjoy.
