The artwork captures a dynamic scene where a small sailboat navigates the turbulent waters alongside a colossal ship. The sailboat, with its vibrant orange sail and white body marked "RUNNER II," conveys a sense of determination and adventure. The sailor, clad in a green shirt, is bent over with focus, maintaining a steady grip on the rudder, embodying the human spirit's perseverance against nature's challenges. In stark contrast, the massive ship looms opposite, painted in bold shades of navy and red, asserting its dominance over the restless sea. The waves are alive, painted with swirling strokes of green and blue, suggesting motion and power. The sky, a deepening blue, hints at either dawn or dusk, adding a layer of mystery and urgency to the scene. The composition's tension—between the industrial might of the ship and the sailor's intimacy with the sea—paints a dramatic narrative of coexistence and conflict. It's an evocative portrayal of man's eternal dance with nature, where courage and fragility meet in every undulating wave. This painting has been created on archival quality canvas paper and has been coated with a clear varnish to protect the surface from dust and sunlight. It is 16X20 inches or 40X50 centimeters.
