Crab Boat commission painting

9/8/2015

1 Comment

 
For several years I love to watch the commercial crab boats come in front of my beach cottage (The Beach Box) located in Sooke on the Juan de Fuca Strait...........known for stormy weather and great fishing.  I so love this beach, the neighbours, the sea gulls (or as my grand daughter calls them....."beach chickens". ) This is such a very special place.  One of our beach neighbours commissioned me to paint another crab boat as a surprise for her husband.  Unbeknownst to the wife.........her husband in the meantime called from their winter home in Fresno, Californina and wanted to purchase a crab boat for his wife as a surprise but he mistakenly called it the Bowen Island Fishing Boat.  As it turns out they both loved each of my boat paintings and both are proudly displayed in their beautiful home on Gordon's Beach.  Love these beach neighbours.
