Thank you all sincerely. It warms me to hear your mention of peaceful energy Jacqui, thats exactly how this image made me feel when I came upon it. All the best to you all. Todd
Wonderfully painting. The warmth of the red boat and the transparent shallows are a beautiful contrast to cool deeper water. So serine. I can imagine the expanse of water that lay beyond the boarders of this painting. You really have it going on here Todd.

rip roaring away! What kind of boat is it in fact? Pretty darn inspirational in every way. I want to go to the water, to go boating, to go painting, to see sunset.. take a picnic..and the RED is just exciting in and of itself. Don't sell it! Give this one to MAX!
Candy Barr, Thank you for all those nice things you said about this painting..this boat, I am told, was handmade by several young boys. I don't know how original the boat building plans were but it's a beautiful boat with long sleek lines..I had to paint it. I'm working on something for Max as this one is sold. Thanks again candy, all the best, Todd

Todd, the sunlit glow in this piece is exceptional!
Thank you all again, those shallows were very challenging to paint but i think worth the effort to say what I wanted to say in this piece.
I hope you are all well.
best,
Todd
