This old buy boat was deteriorating in a field in Deltaville Va. The stories hidden in this old gal could only stroke the imagination of an old waterman.

Wonderful and mystical image...your affection for water and boats is something I relate to.

I love the feeling of this painting - the interesting leafless tree branches and flying birds give it a slightly eerie feeling that I find very appropriate. Congratulations on your tie for first place in the Retired Fishing Boats contest.

What a wonderful old boat; they have so much character, esp. in their last days! FV

Thanks, Angela, it's been bulldozed away now but had a good lie on the Chesapeke Bay.
