Portland Harbor — Fine Art

Portland Harbor moves across water and boats with loose painted strokes. A pale sky sits above dark shapes on the tide. Blue and grey tones meet the warm boat hull colours, and the sea stays quiet against the harder forms. The white frame gives the image a clean border, and the white edge keeps the cool harbour tones clean on the wall. You can place this fine art print above a kitchen counter, and from the stove you read the broad painted shapes before the small brush lines.

The print uses a matte paper surface, so the blue and grey water tones stay even without shine.

The print hangs on a stairwell wall where the light comes from the landing window. You notice the dark boat shapes first, then the lighter water lines behind them.
